Hand-in-hand... Star Appraisals Inc. & Technology

Star Appraisals, Inc. has made a heavy investment in technology. All of our computers are the latest Dell models which race through the web using Comcast high-speed internet. Our reports are made and delivered through software designed by A la mode, our very own webhost. Remember the days when appraisals were filled out via typewriter and then mailed or hand delivered to the intended user? Well, A la mode makes those days a thing of the past. Star Appraisals, Inc. will create a high quality report and then digitally send it to the intended user by way of e-mail. All of this takes a grand total of 15 seconds... as opposed to the days or weeks that it used to take. The valuation of your home can be to the lender faster, thus paving the way for them to make an informed decision on your loan or refinancing application in a much shorter time frame.

If you choose Star Appraisals, Inc. for your real estate valuation needs, you will notice a number of "gadgets" that the appraisers have when they arrive. We have everything from laser tape measures to high-end digital cameras to Xenon powered flashlights. Why do we need all of these new inventions? Simple... all of this is done in the name of time efficiency while not sacrificing report efficiency. Our laser tape measures help us to gather interior square footages in a matter of seconds. However, appraisers also recognize the limits of technology... which is why you will ALWAYS find the standard yellow tape measure latched to our belts. Our Sony digital cameras take ultra-high quality pictures with 5.0 megapixel resolution which produces much sharper pictures then an old Polaroid. Finally, our Xenon powered flashlighs allow us to see in any crevice and light-lacking space that a house has to offer so that we can make the most thorough home inspection possible.

Finally, there is our website. The old way of ordering appraisals, calling the appraiser and having them ramble off numbers and terms which are indiscernable, is becoming virtually extinct. Through www.starappraisalsinc.com, you can order an appraisal and then log on to the client portion of our website and check the status of your order in realtime. We also offer a list of all of our services and the corresponding prices in our "Services" link. Everything which could possibly be required to explain the appraisals process can be found on our website. However, some people prefer good old fashioned customer service... this is just fine with us! Please give us a call and our appraisers will be happy to assist you in answering all of your questions and determining your appraisal needs. You will find them knowledgable in a vast array of Real Estate Valuations and very personable to deal with. We look forward to serving you!
