About Me
Hi, I’m Robert Rich, a Certified Residential Appraiser serving Santa Clara County, San Mateo County, and surrounding areas. I specialize in high-quality, independent real estate appraisals for a wide range of purposes — including date of death (estate) appraisals, pre-listing, divorce, PMI removal, and more.
With years of hands-on experience and deep local market knowledge, I pride myself on delivering accurate, timely, and well-supported reports.
Whether you're a homeowner, real estate agent, attorney, CPA, or real estate professional, I’m here to provide dependable valuation services with clear communication and fast turnaround times.
When you hire me, you're working directly with a licensed appraiser — not a middleman or a large firm — ensuring a more personal and responsive experience

My Story
Real estate has always fascinated me — not just the properties themselves, but the stories behind them and the people they impact. That interest eventually led me to pursue a career in residential appraisal, where I could combine my love of research with my desire to help others through important transitions.
As a local appraiser based in Mountain View, I value clear communication, professionalism, and a smooth experience for every client I work with. I take pride in offering a service that supports informed decision-making and peace of mind.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my children, attending sporting events, and exploring new eateries throughout the Bay Area. I'm proud to serve the community I live in and contribute to its continued growth and integrity.
