Independent appraisal firms
Firms that do not broker or lend: IRR, BBG and Kroll.
Last updated: 2026-10-20
We do not score appraisal firms. Appraisal quality shows up in individual reports, which we cannot review. The brokerages listed here keep their existing scores on their commercial brokerage reviews; those scores are not about valuation. Firms are listed alphabetically.
Many lenders want an appraiser with no stake in the deal. The three firms below do not broker sales or make loans. Their size figures are self-reported.
