About PM Appraisal
A Family-Owned California Appraisal Firm with 40 Years of Experience
A family-owned, boutique commercial appraisal firm based in San Diego County, with about 40 years of appraising across California.
Built on one idea
The people who rely on an appraisal should be able to reach the appraiser. That is how PM Appraisal has worked since 1983. When you call (805) 990-9700, the phone gets answered, and you talk with the appraiser who will inspect the property and write your report.
Paul's motto is simple: we do everything everywhere in California. Lenders and attorneys get the appraiser on the phone, not an AMC associate who has never seen the property. We're your ears and eyes on the property.
Our focus is commercial real estate of every type, for private and hard money lenders, investors, attorneys, CPAs and trustees. The work we do most often: lender collateral appraisals, estate and date-of-death appraisals, divorce, retroactive and litigation assignments.
Statewide, from San Diego County
We are based in San Diego County and serve all of California. Over about 40 years the firm has appraised property across California, including from a former Los Angeles office, so our team already knows the markets your property sits in.
How we work
- Detailed narrative reports that show the market, the comparables and the reasoning.
- Rush commercial appraisals in 5 to 7 business days. Standard timing depends on the property and scope. Call (805) 990-9700 for a timeline on your assignment.
- Fees are never tied to the appraised value, and we never promise a number.

Notable assignments

And plenty of smaller properties
In Paul’s words: “We do plenty of half a million dollar properties as well.” Same appraiser, same care, whatever the size.
