Testimonials
"I have been a Real Estate ‘Review Appraiser’ for over 30 years. Over that time period I have reviewed more than 60,000 appraisals for scores of Banks and other federally regulated lending institutions. Over the last 10 years a few hundred of those Appraisals have been conducted by Pete Burness, so it is with a comprehensive and thorough understanding of both industry standards and Pete’s work product that I can say with confidence that Pete’s integrity is uncompromised, his research is impeccable and his values are solid."
