What is a bail bond appraisal?

If someone close to you needs a bail bond in order to be released from custody, you can put up your property for bond as a substitute for a cash bond. But first, the home's value must be determined so the court can ensure that it will cover the cost of the bond. A licensed appraiser can perform a bail bond appraisal to analyze the value of your home so that it can be used for bail bond. This is known as a property bond.

When is a bail bond appraisal requied?

A bail bond appraisal must be performed if you want to put your home up as collateral. This is a good alternative if a loved one is incarcerated and you can't put down cash or other assets as collateral to discharge them.

How do bail bond appraisals work?

A bail bond appraisal is similar to other kinds of appraisals — an appraiser performs an inspection of a property, then writes a report that explains how they determined the value. You can put trust in the estimates performed by James Wagner thanks to our extensive experience, familiarity with the San Jose area, and conformity to the Appraisal Foundation standards and regulations.

What do I do if I need a bail bond appraisal fast?

You're in a time-sensitive situation, and when it comes to getting your loved one out of custody quickly, we're ready to assist. We'd be happy to shift our calendars to ensure speedy service for your bail bond appraisal. We are willing to expedite your appraisal, so contact us today. But your appraisal order needs to be both fast AND accurate. Since you can only use your property as collateral if it offsets the cost of the bail bond (usually, your property must be valued at at least 50% to 100% more than the cost of the bond), your appraisal needs to be precise. And at James Wagner, we will work hard to ensure your appraisal is fast, but we will not skimp on the details that form a high quality, accurate appraisal.
