Bill is the guy you go to when property valuation and appraisal work has to be right the first time. His impeccable reputation with the lenders for in-depth, timely and clear support for his conclusions, is what helps our brokerage and investments transactions get done.

I have hired Bill James on several occasions to evaluate our markets. As an operator and developer of multi-family rental housing, I rely on Bill’s dependable results to determine the most competitive rents and to ensure success on the most complex transactions. I appreciate Bill’s high level of professionalism. His reports are timely and accurate, and he is an all around pleasure to work with.

Bill was an active and respected leader in the Appraisal Institute when I was CEO there, and served on committees that oversaw qualifications for the MAI designation. His work as an appraiser and consultant is held in high regard by his peers and clients. I would enjoy the opportunity to work with him again.

I first worked with Bill over thirty years ago, have retained his services numerous times over the years and have always found him to be thoughtful, realistic and reasonable in his approach to the practice of real estate appraisal. Mutual clients have also retained his services and also speak highly of him and his work product. His ancillary services give him a broad market perspective that he is most generous about sharing with friends and clients alike and his public service work as a member of the Board of the Regional Transportation District elevates his knowledge and capacity in an unmatched fashion. I would not hesitate to retain him for other work in the future and will continue to recommend him to clients

I have used Bill James for many years as a commercial appraiser. His reports are always on time, and show an ability to understand the nature and ultimate value of a variety of properties. He is also diligent in his adherence to high professional standards.

I have worked with Bill on residential real estate appraisals in the Aspen and Snowmass Village markets (a market where the average price of single family residences is well over $5 million, and we have a number of $20 million-plus properties). I have found Bill to be not only thorough, but thoughtful in his approach to appraising residences. I appreciate his willingness to increase his understanding of the property and marketplace by listening to information and taking that into account as necessary. I have given Bill referrals on complex properties or situations that I was unable to accept, and I look forward to working with him again.

Bill James and his company, James Real Estate Services, provides timely and competent appraisal services. I have used JRES several times over the years and I found their work to be very well done. Their assertions are fully supported and their overall results are realistic. Bill’s experience in transportation in the Cherry Creek area of Denver, as well as his board membership with the RTD gives him special insight to transportation related issues and how it can impact values. This company is a pleasure to deal with and I would certainly continue to draw on their expertise whenever opportunities arise.

- Harold Goldback

I hired Bill to provide real estate appraisal work for one of my clients. Bill’s work was timely, professional and highly credible. He demonstrated the kind of attention to detail and quality of service that make him a top flight appraiser in the Denver market.

t is with great pleasure that I recommend Bill’s services as a real estate appraiser and market analyst. I have known Bill for over 30 years, worked with him at FHA when we were both beginning our careers and retained his services while working for various lending institutions and recommended him to clients for appraisals for estate planning. His work is thorough, timely, on budget, well-researched and his conclusions are always reasonable and well supported. He is respected by governmental agencies and lenders and I would not hesitate to hire him again or recommend him to clients.
