Long Beach Home Appraiser
Professional residential appraisal services for Long Beach homeowners. Specializing in divorce, estate, pre-listing, and tax appeal appraisals.
About Long Beach Real Estate
Long Beach is a major coastal city blending a bustling urban port with beautiful sandy beaches and historic waterfront neighborhoods. As the second-largest city in the Greater Los Angeles area, its housing stock ranges from historic Craftsman bungalows in the Rose Park district to luxury waterfront estates in Belmont Shore and Naples. Appraising real estate in Long Beach requires a highly localized understanding of neighborhood premiums and coastal proximity. Valuing a custom luxury home along the canals of Naples involves completely different market dynamics than assessing a historic property near downtown or a suburban family residence in Lakewood Village. Our team specializes in these nuanced coastal and urban residential markets. We provide highly accurate, fully defensible appraisal reports for estate planning, divorce asset division, and private property sales.

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."

"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."
