Insurance Companies
Business Interruption Consulting, Damages Estimates
Federal Appraisal, LLC provides consulting and appraisal services to individuals and companies suffering from business interruptions and damages from natural and man-made disasters and accidents. If the loss or diminution of the use of your real estate is causing a loss in business income and/or is reducing the utility or value of your real estate, then Federal Appraisal, LLC may be able to help you recoup your damages. Even tenants in damaged or reduced utility space can benefit from our services.
Federal Appraisal also provides Insurable Value appraisals.
Not-for-Profit Organizations
Federal Appraisal has substantial experience servicing not-for-profit organizations. Their organizational structures impact their need for appraisal services. They have unique requirements for reporting to their boards and other oversight groups. They are cost sensitive. While real estate activities that they require assistance with often represent one of the most significant financial decisions of the organization, the real estate training, knowledge, and experience are beyond that of the best run not-for-profit organizations. Unfortunately, all too often, not-for-profit organizations wait too long before contacting real estate professionals or they’re not even aware that they can obtain assistance for their particular needs.

We understand the needs and desires of both companies and their investors. We understand the need of companies to control reporting and the associated costs, and to remain, beyond a doubt, in compliance. We understand investors need for transparency and clarity.

Appraisals for Condemnation and Eminent Domain
Federal Appraisal LLC specializes in appraisals for condemnation and eminent domain. These are complex appraisals, even when the property by itself is of low value and a simple property class. Even an appraisal of a low value home is complex when the appraisal is for condemnation and eminent domain because the appraisal reporting requirements are frequently extensive and frequently variable from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. In such cases, the required appraiser qualifications are extensive. Federal Appraisal has decades of experience appraising for condemnation and eminent domain. Federal has appraised all major classes of property for condemnation and eminent domain, from homes to land, and higher value commercial (offices, apartments, malls, warehouses, etc.) to very high value special properties (power plants, utility properties, special manufacturing properties).
