Community Appraisal Services, Inc.
Welcome to Community Appraisal Services, Inc., a residential real estate appraisal firm serving Pittsburgh and its surrounding areas.
Who is Community Appraisal Services?
Community Appraisal began over ten years ago with real estate veteran Frederick Valicenti at the helm. Fostering a commitment to his clients and a detailed knowledge of the real estate business, Fred molded Community Appraisal into a successful company committed to maintaining the strictest standards of customer service, reliability and professionalism.
In July 2007, appraiser William Burns and Jennifer Tulenko took over as co-owners of the company. Bill and Jen were selected by Fred to take over the company, and aim to continue the course that Fred set, employing his business values and continuing to grow Community Appraisal.
At Community Appraisal, we not only understand the urgency of real estate appraisals but the importance of accuracy and thoroughness as well. You’ll find that we’re straightforward and easy to work with – we’ll make your real estate appraisal easy, whether you’re closing on a home or you need the experience of an appraiser whose property values stand up in court.

"I regularly use Community Appraisal to do residential real estate appraisals in my family
law practice. The appraisers are always courteous with my clients. The appraisals are

"I feel confident in sending my requests to Community Appraisal Services. Fred
and his crew are attentive and accommodating. They return phone calls and email
without fail. I know if there are problems I’ll be the first to know – and you
couldn’t ask for a quicker turn around time!"
-Regina Quinn, Howard Hanna Mortgage Services
"I have used Community Appraisal Services for over thirteen years. I can always
count on the most professional job from their office. They are great at resolving
issues that arise in the appraisal process and achieve a quick turn-around time.
It’s always nice to call and actually talk to someone on the phone as opposed to
an answering service. I highly recommend Community Appraisal Services."
-Joe Pappas, Statesman Mortgage Corporation
