Appraisers in Texas

Need a property appraised in Texas? Search the full list of licensed Texas appraisers by name or credential, and check each one's license status and contact details.
For a house, condo, or small rental of up to four units, a Certified Residential or Licensed Residential appraiser is the usual choice. Licensed Residential appraisers are limited to simpler homes under $1 million, so go with Certified Residential for anything larger or unusual. Commercial buildings, non-residential land, and properties with five or more units need a Certified General appraiser. Whoever you hire, make sure their license is active in Texas before they start.

Texas does not release appraiser office locations in its public license data (Senate Bill 510), so we can't break this list down by county. You can still browse every licensed appraiser in the state and filter by name, license number, or credential.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find a real estate appraiser in Texas?
Texas doesn't publish appraiser office locations, so search the full Texas list by name or credential instead. Each profile shows the appraiser's credentials and contact details. Contact two or three, tell them the property type and address, and ask about their fee and turnaround time.
How do I check an appraiser's license in Texas?
Every appraiser listed here shows their Texas license number, credential level, status, and expiration date, taken from the national appraiser registry kept by the federal Appraisal Subcommittee and refreshed monthly. Check that the status says Active and the expiration date falls after your appraisal date.
Are there commercial appraisers in Texas?
Yes. 2,352 appraisers in Texas hold the Certified General credential, which is required for commercial buildings, non-residential land, and properties with five or more units. Look for "Certified General" on the profile before you hire.
Can an appraiser licensed in another state appraise property in Texas?
Only if they're also licensed in Texas or get a temporary practice permit from Texas's appraiser board for that assignment. Many appraisers near state lines hold licenses in more than one state, and their profiles here list every state they're licensed in.
