appraiser

An appraiser is a professional who assesses the value of a property, such as a home or commercial building. They evaluate factors like size, condition, location, and recent sales of similar properties to determine its worth. Their expertise helps lenders, buyers, and sellers make informed decisions, especially during real estate transactions or refinancing. An appraiser's report provides an unbiased, expert opinion of value, ensuring the property's price is fair and accurate.
