Kristina Larson – Certified Residential Real Estate Appraiser
With nearly two decades of experience, I have dedicated my career to providing accurate, reliable, and professional real estate appraisals across San Bernardino County, CA, and Northeast Ohio, including Ashtabula, Cuyahoga, Geauga, Portage, and Lake counties. As a Certified Residential Real Estate Appraiser, I specialize in valuations of vacant land and diverse properties, from small homes and luxury estates to rural land, bomb shelters, and even distressed properties.
A Journey Rooted in Real Estate & Valuation Expertise
My passion for real estate started early in my career as a notary public, where I helped clients navigate loan documents at closings. This led me to work as an escrow assistant at a respected title and escrow office, where I gained hands-on experience analyzing property data, loan documents, and market trends. The intricate details of properties—their architecture, history, land features, and unique characteristics—inspired me to become an appraiser.
Earning my appraisal license in 2006, I self-funded my education and dedicated time and effort to mastering the complexities of real estate valuation. My journey led me to work as an Appraiser II for the San Bernardino County Assessor’s Office, where I specialized in mass appraisals, tax appeal reviews, property inspections, and market analysis. This role sharpened my expertise in property valuation, tax assessments, and real estate trends, further strengthening my ability to provide thorough, unbiased, and market-driven appraisals.
