Client Reviews
"If you’re an owner-builder in Winchester California or doing a custom project, stop looking and just call Levi Mateo. Finding an appraiser who actually gets construction valuation is hard enough, but Levi is on another level. He was super responsive—never left me hanging and got me exactly the reporting I needed to keep my project moving. What I appreciated most was the respect for my privacy; he was professional, low-profile, and totally understood the discretion needed for a private build. Fast, respectful, and knows his stuff inside and out. 5 stars all day."
- Jordan W., Winchester
"Had a great experience working with our Levi. He was professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with throughout the entire process. Communication was clear, he moved quickly, and the turnaround time on the appraisal report was faster than expected. Everything was handled efficiently and thoroughly. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive home appraiser."

"I used Mateo Appraisal from a recommendation of a friend, very glad I did. Setting the appointment was easy and very accommodating to my schedule. He was right on time and was very professional. He walked me thru his process so I knew what to expect as he was going around the property. I received the completed report right on time as outlined at our appointment. I was very happy with the outcome. I appreciate a business owner doing everything they say they will do. Highly recommended."
