The History.
The Team.
The Family.
Founded in 1991 by Edward Boyd, the company quickly Edward truly made it a family business when his younger brothers Tom, David and Clayton joined him in this exciting chapter of life. For decades, the company grew to a thriving business with over 100 banks & lenders - such as JPMorgan Chase, BOFA, Wells Fargo, United Wholesale lenders, Carrington Mortgage, Rocket Mortgage, PennyMac Loans, LendingTree... along with many others.
Since then, the business has expanded even further to include 3 locations so we can service almost any county of North Georgia. The North Eastern (Loganville Branch) is managed by Clayton Boyd and with a few other appraisers and trainees. Currently, we service Gwinnett, Walton, Barrow, Newton, Rockdale, Henry, DeKalb, Greene, Clarke and Fulton counties. Sadly, our brother and mentor Edward passed away of cancer a few years ago. We all miss him very much, but strive to keep his legacy alive by providing the best appraisal reports to our clients. Ed's wisdom and unyielding attention to detail is instilled in every new apprentice we train or appraiser we hire. The team is always growing, just like a family should.
Also, if you hadn't noticed... we like the color green. We hope you do too. We will work hard to get you as much green as possible.
