We closed this morning on the sale of the property. Your work was key to helping us determine, and demonstrate to the buyer the accurate property value. Thank you very much!

Mr. Lenka M. Keith, MAI

VP, Appraisal Review / Columbia Bank

I don't remember the last time I gave an appraiser five stars for their service, but I did for Kidder Mathews. An outstanding job when it comes to due diligence and communication throughout the process.

Mr. Dennis P. Drennan

Real Property Program Administrator / City of Mountain View, CA

I want to compliment you on a very well-documented, well-reasoned, and well-written appraisal for our arbitration of a rent re-adjustment with a major tech firm. I have a pretty good sense of what a good appraisal looks like, and this one falls in the "Excellent" category. Again, thanks for the excellent report and very successful resolution of our case on a short time frame.
