CONSULTING SERVICES:

Feasibility Studies:
This is the determination of the likelihood that a proposed product or development will fulfill the objectives of a particular investor. In other words, it should determine whether a certain plan of action is feasible—that is, whether or not it will work, and whether or not it is worth doing economically.

Sales Studies:
A compilation and analysis of real estate sales data used to determine a value estimate for a particular property type within a specific region. Sales studies are most commonly used in large scale projects that effect multiple properties.

NEGOTIATING SERVICES:
When local public agencies require the acquisition of real estate to complete a project, an amount is established that is believed to be just compensation for the real property being acquired. The property owner is then given the opportunity to consider the offer and propose any modifications to the established purchase price, compensation, or damages for the taking of any real property. During this negotiation process, the utilization of professional representation can have a profound effect on the outcome. Steiro Appraisal Service, Inc. will assist in the negotiation process by providing a comprehensive analysis of market data and opinion of value for the property being acquired to ensure appropriate compensation is awarded.
