Appraisal Review for Homeowners, Buyers and Sellers — ROV Help Desk

Who We Help — Homeowners, Buyers & Sellers

When the Appraisal Doesn't Reflect the Market

An appraisal that contains factual errors or overlooks relevant market evidence can affect your purchase, refinance, or sale. ROV Help Desk provides an independent, appraiser-led review to determine whether a credible basis for reconsideration exists.

Disclaimer: ROV Help Desk services are not appraisals, appraisal reviews, opinions of market value, legal opinions, lending decisions, or guarantees that an appraised value will increase, decrease, or otherwise change unless separately agreed to in writing through an appropriate professional engagement.
