San Mateo County

Property records do not match the existing home

When public records, prior listings, permits, and the physical property report different sizes, room counts, units, or improvements.

Record discrepancies are common in long-held estate properties because additions, conversions, and measurement methods may have changed over time.

San Mateo County estates often involve high-value Peninsula homes, coastal properties, condominiums, hillside residences, and long-held family property with substantial appreciation.

The appraiser should identify the sources reviewed, explain material differences, and state which property characteristics are being relied upon in the valuation.
