Eminent Domain & Condemnation Appraisal Services

Have you received a notice of intent to acquire property from CDOT, a city/town or public utility? When a government entity or utility intends to construct a new road, expand an existing road, or extend utilities across your property, you are entitled to be paid just compensation for the “taking”. Regardless of the scope of the acquisition, you should obtain your own appraisal in order ensure you receive just compensation for the property being acquired. If the value of the property taken exceeds $5,000, Colorado law requires the condemning authority to reimburse the property owner for the reasonable costs of an appraisal.
