Which appraisal SKU do I need: screener, $19, $59, $99, or $399?
This page sells a product, not a delivery path. If you already know you need a signed keep-file, the hero is $59. Screening, insurance, tax, and onsite inspection are different jobs. Compare delivery paths on /choose-appraisal-path.
Not for: A 301 onto the path chooser, a house-value estimate, a promise of insurer or IRS acceptance, or a published pack or rush dollar.
Default: Standard $59. Signed keep-file for records, resale planning, or one inherited object: $59. Insurer asked for replacement value: $99 after you ask the carrier. CPA, donation, or estate-tax file: $399 case review. Instant Screener is a $9 unsigned first read. Expert Quick Check is $19 on a saved screener. Lots and rooms: quote.
Personal property only. This page chooses the public SKU. /choose-appraisal-path compares screening, online, insurance, tax, and onsite delivery. Default hero is $59. We do not claim USPAP certification.
Comparables for the SKU you buy, not on this chooser. Matching sales are selected in the signed PDF for the SKU that matches intended use. The lots below are similar public auction results across object classes so you can see how citations look. They are not a SKU price list and not your object.
Match these: The same intended use as the SKU you order; The same object type once you leave this chooser; The same completeness and condition story in the PDF
Do not use as comps: Using Instant Screener as an insurance rider; Using a $59 keep-file as a tax attachment; Invented auction results on a chooser page
Similar public auction results below are not your object and not a value conclusion. The signed PDF selects the comps that match your file.

SKU vs path. /choose-appraisal-path compares how work is delivered: free screening, standard online, insurance, tax, or an onsite directory. This URL chooses which public SKU to buy. Do not treat them as duplicates.
Match the recipient, then the SKU. Ask who will read the document. Curiosity is not a rider. A CPA letter is not a keep-file. A marketplace listing is not tax evidence.
What the table does not sell. We do not publish a fourth consumer price, a bundle pack, or a rush dollar. Priority, if available, appears at checkout. Subscriptions are professional screening tools, not a consumer appraisal.
Questions
Are the sold lots on this page my appraisal?
No. They are similar public auction results so you can see how citations look. The signed PDF selects comps for the SKU and object you order. They are not a value conclusion.
Is this the same page as choose an appraisal path?
No. /choose-appraisal-path compares screening, online, insurance, tax, and onsite delivery. This page chooses the public SKU. Link between them; do not collapse them.
Which appraisal should I buy if I only want a written value?
Standard $59. That is a signed PDF opinion for records or resale planning. It is not a rider, not a tax file, and not unsigned screening.
When do I pay $99 instead of $59?
When a carrier asked for replacement value. Ask them first whether a remote signed PDF is acceptable. We do not promise insurer acceptance.
When is $399 the right SKU?
When a CPA, attorney, or tax adviser asked for donation, gift, or estate-tax support. $399 is case review, not automatic federal qualification, and not tax advice.
Can Instant Screener replace a signed report?
No. Instant Screener is a $9 unsigned first read, not for formal use. Expert Quick Check $19 is a human read of a saved screener, still not a signed PDF.
Do you claim USPAP certification?
No. We do not claim USPAP certification, insurer approval, or court acceptance. See /uspap.
Is there a published rush or pack price?
No. There is no fourth public consumer price, no pack dollar, and no published rush dollar.
