Bail Bond Appraisals

Bail Bond Home Appraisals

Chicagoland Appraisals is a family orientated business that assists homeowners who are in need of posting bail. We know how traumatizing these situations can be even for a short period of time so we understand the importance of moving quickly in order to get your loved ones home as soon as possible. An appraisal is usually required to determine collateral for a bail or immigration bond while your loved one is in jail or some type of custody. These types of appraisals are what we call ‘drop everything we’re doing appraisals’ because when real estate is offered as security, you need to know what a property is worth, and you need to know it fast. This usually means we have to stop working on other appraisals already in progress, reschedule appointments, and much more in order to focus strictly on your immediate needs.

These types of appraisals receive our highest priority and our services are both discreet and confidential to assure your privacy. Our team of certified and experienced appraisers at Chicagoland Appraisals understands the complexities involved in assessing the value of a property under these difficult circumstances and work hard to provide you with the best possible experience. Our Senior Appraiser, John Tsiaousis, has extensive experience in working with local bail bond companies, as well as a large number of local Law Firms when it comes to bail bond proceedings.

My wife and I are extremely grateful for the work that Chicagoland Appraisals did at our property. John arrived at our single family home (built 2019) in the Portage Park neighborhood of Chicago, IL. It was an in person COVID friendly home appraisal. John was super professional and had all the equipment he needed to conduct the appraisal efficiently. The turnaround time to receive the PDF file was super fast! The official appraisal conducted by John helped provide the necessary evidence needed to correct the value of our home compared to what a computer spit out from the Cook County assessor's office first pass assessment. Our Cook County 2021 first pass assessment was $740,000 = yearly tax estimate of $15,566.00 Our Cook County Assessor Post-Appeal = $669,390 = new yearly tax estimated of $14,081.00 This reflects an over assessment of $70,610.00 of our property! Our total estimated yearly tax savings equals $1485.00. $1485 x 3 years = $4455 of savings! (until next assessment) We did not hire any lawyers! We only followed the directions on the Cook County official appeal website. My wife and I uploaded the PDF file that Chicagoland Appraisals created and submitted a small residential appeal narrative to support our appeal. We did everything online and did not have to appear before the cook county property tax board. Thanks to everyone at Chicagoland Appraisals, our family can continue to live in the Portage Park neighborhood of Chicago. This company is accurate, honest, and professional. Chicagoland Appraisals offers excellent value for the work performed.

I had my Rogers Park condo appraised by Chicagoland Appraisals in mid January of this year. The scheduling process went smoothly and the in-person appointment was swift and informative. I was getting my property appraised to remove PMI, and received the appraisal 3 weeks after the appointment. The process was overall easy and professionally done. Would use them again in the future.

I had an excellent experience with Chicagoland Appraisals and the owner John Tsiaousis and recommend his company and services very highly. I needed an appraisal for the condo I own in Logan Square neighborhood - and it was rather urgent. I had tried other recommended appraisers - but they were too busy or unavailable. I discovered John and Chicagoland Appraisers through them website - which left a very favorable initial impression and means of contact. John was highly responsive from the initial contact - and throughout the process. His approach is professional and courteous. The online scheduling tool was very helpful and enabled me to meet my timing needs. Chicagoland offers both virtual and in person appraisal services. I used the in person appraisal. He arrived on time, was prepared and conducted his inspection efficiently and thoroughly. John promised a quick turnaround on the written document - and actually exceeded expectations. The report was very well constructed and supported his appraisal with relevant comparable properties. John made himself available and responsive to my questions. In addition, the fees for Chicagoland charged were very reasonable and represent a great value for the services delivered. In summary, I've had numerous appraisals done on various residential properties I've owned over the years. I've never had a better appraisal experience than I had with Chicagoland Appraisals and John Tsiaousis. I highly recommend their appraisal services.
