Infinite Appraisal Services, LLC provides honest and ethical appraisals for Williamson County

Infinite Appraisal Services, LLC upholds the utmost professional ethics

Appraising is a profession, and appraisers are professionals. The rigors of becoming a licensed appraiser have become more difficult than ever in the past. That's why it goes without question these days that real estate appraisal can certainly be called a profession rather than a trade. In our field, as with any profession, we have a strict ethical code.

We have many obligations as appraisers, but our primary duty is to our clients. Typically, for a normal residential appraisal, the lender (or an agent of the lender) places the order to the appraiser, becoming the appraiser's client. Consequently, appraisers are privy to a lot of information, and like an attorney, can only discuss many of these matters with their client. As a homeowner, if you want to review an appraisal report, you normally should request it through your lender instead of the appraiser.

Other responsibilities include numerical accuracy depending on the assignment parameters, reaching and sustaining a particular level of competency and education, and the appraiser must conduct him or herself as a professional. Here at Infinite Appraisal Services, LLC, we take these ethical responsibilities very seriously.

Appraisers will frequently need to consider the interests of third parties, including homeowners, both buyers and sellers, or others. Those third parties normally are defined in the appraisal assignment itself. An appraiser's fiduciary role is restricted to those third parties who the appraiser is aware of, based on the scope of work or other written parameters of the order.

Infinite Appraisal Services, LLC has an established reputation for completing competent and ethically superior appraisals. Contact us today to learn more.


There are also ethical rules that have nothing to do with clients and others. For example, appraisers must store their work files for a minimum of five years - something else Infinite Appraisal Services, LLC makes a part of their standard routine.

We meet or exceed the industry standards and rules set in place for ethics. We refuse to accept anything less from ourselves. Working on orders where our fee is dependent on our value conclusion is not something we can consider. In other words, we are not able to agree to do an appraisal report and base our pay upon coming up with a particular value conclusion. It should be apparent to anyone that fabricating a home's value to achieve what amounts to a higher paycheck is unethical! This isn't how we operate.

Finally, the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (or simply "USPAP") clearly defines unethical behavior as accepting of an assignment that is contingent on "the reporting of a pre-determined result (e.g., opinion of value)", "a direction in assignment results that favors the cause of the client", or "the amount of a value opinion" in addition to other situations We diligently follow these rules to the letter which means you can be assured we are doing everything we can to objectively determine the home or property value.

With Infinite Appraisal Services, LLC, you won't have any doubts that you're getting 100 percent ethical, honest service.
