Refund Policy
A legal disclaimer
The appraisal services provided by Valley Wealth are professional opinions of value developed in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and applicable state regulations. Appraisal reports represent the appraiser’s unbiased opinion as of the effective date of the appraisal and are not guarantees of value, marketability, or transaction outcome.
​
Appraisals are prepared for the intended user(s) and intended use stated in the appraisal report. Reliance by any other party or for any other purpose is prohibited without the express written consent of the appraiser.
​
The appraised value is not contingent upon:
-
Loan approval or denial
-
Sale price or contract price
-
Acceptance by lenders, courts, taxing authorities, or other third parties
-
Desired or expected outcomes by the client or any other party
Nothing on this website, including descriptions of services or appraisal processes, constitutes legal, tax, or financial advice. Clients are encouraged to consult with qualified legal, tax, or financial professionals regarding decisions that may rely on appraisal results.
​
By engaging our services, the client acknowledges that appraisal fees are charged for professional services rendered and are not contingent upon value conclusions or third-party acceptance.
Refund Policy
All appraisal fees are earned upon acceptance of the assignment and initiation of appraisal services. Due to the professional nature of appraisal work—including time, research, analysis, and compliance obligations—all appraisal sales are final and non-refundable.
​
Once an appraisal assignment has commenced, no refunds will be issued for any reason, including but not limited to:
​
-
Property value conclusions
-
Client dissatisfaction with outcome
-
Loan denial or transaction cancellation
-
Changes in client circumstances
-
Intended use no longer required
If an assignment is canceled prior to inspection or substantial work being performed, a partial refund may be considered at the sole discretion of the appraiser, less any administrative, research, or time costs already incurred.
​
Corrections of factual errors or clarification requests will be addressed in accordance with USPAP standards and the agreed-upon scope of work, but such revisions do not constitute grounds for a refund.
​
By engaging our services and submitting payment, the client acknowledges and agrees to this refund policy.
