About Us

Based in Pittsburgh, PA, Applied Valuation Services formed in 2013 out of a desire to create a company that could deliver an elite level of service that would become the new industry standard in valuation products. We have brought together individuals from the fields of mortgage lending, property valuation, customer service and technology.  Relying on their years of knowledge and experience, we have built solutions that we feel get to the heart of what our customers are seeking in a partner.
