Appraisal Services

Westview Zaikow Agencies also offers residential appraisal services conducted by Appraisal Institute of Canada Certified Residential Appraiser, Jake Zaikow, (CRA). With over 20 years of appraisal experience in the Powell River area, Jake Zaikow, is Powell River’s leading appraisal professional.

It is important to note that Zaikow Agencies appraisals are completed start to finish by an AIC designated CRA and not by a Student Candidate appraiser.

Sometimes there is some confusion over the difference between an appraisal and a market evaluation.  An appraisal is an unbiased valuation of real estate done by an appraisal professional and completed for property owners, lawyers, government bodies, lending institutions, or mortgage brokers. There are several reasons to request an appraisal but the most common is for mortgage lending purposes. A market evaluation, on the other hand, is usually conducted by a Realtor for the purpose of determining the market value of a home that a client would like to sell.

Westview Zaikow Agencies completes appraisal reports for most major Canadian lending institutions. Our service area includes Powell River, Texada Island, Savary Island, and Lund to Saltery Bay, and as always our fees are fair, and below the national average. We strive to have the fastest turnaround time in the Powell River area.
