The Fort Lauderdale Appraisal Experts Attorneys, Lenders & Families Call First.
Regional Real Estate Appraisal Service is a third-generation, family-owned firm with nearly 50 years of experience and a long-standing presence throughout South Florida.

Why Fort Lauderdale & Broward County Clients Trust Regional With Their Most Important Real Estate Decisions
"As a realtor, I have worked with many appraisers. Regional is by far the most qualified and efficient team I have worked with. Regional is quick, reliable, and always reachable. This team does not miss a beat!" - Devyn Garrison
"Kristi turned an enormous, long-distance challenge for me into a piece of cake. I am immensely lucky to have selected this firm and so very grateful for all of Kristi’s excellent help beyond the service for she was hired." - Marya D.
"I am a realtor with the Christina Gibbons Group and rely on Regional for all my valuation needs. The team is highly knowledgeable, accurate, and up-to-date with the market. I have full confidence in their opinions, and you will too!" - Crystal Del Castillo
A Certified Real Estate Appraisal Is Stronger, More Reliable, and More Trusted — Here's Why.
- Legally defensible — accepted by courts, the IRS, and lenders. An estimate is not.
- Prepared by a credentialed expert — USPAP-compliant, not generated by an algorithm.
- Carries real weight — in negotiation, litigation, and at the closing table.
- Court-qualified expert witness testimony available — when your legal matter requires an appraiser who can defend their opinion under oath, we're prepared to do exactly that.
- Protects you from costly mistakes — the right number now prevents major problems later.
- Required when it counts — for divorce, probate, and litigation, there's no substitute.
Every Major Decision Deserves an Accurate Real Estate Appraisal.
A Zillow estimate won’t hold up in Broward County court. A listing agent’s opinion isn’t accepted by the IRS. And a guess won’t satisfy a lender, a judge, or your accountant.
A certified, USPAP-compliant real estate appraisal is an independent, professionally supported opinion of market value — one that can be relied upon by attorneys, financial institutions, courts, and government agencies throughout Florida. It’s the document that protects you, backs your decisions, and stands up under scrutiny.
Southeast Florida’s real estate market moves fast and carries high stakes — from oceanfront estates in Palm Beach to FEMA flood zone properties along the Broward coast to investment corridors in North Miami and Aventura. Whatever your situation, Regional Real Estate Appraisal Service has seen it before — and we know how to handle it right.
