Service area
Valley-Wide Appraisal Services is based in Elk Grove, California, and appraises residential property across 19 counties within roughly 100 miles — the Sacramento region, the northern San Joaquin Valley, the Sierra foothills, and parts of the Bay Area edge.
Elk Grove, with about a 100-mile working radius
Every assignment starts from the same place: Elk Grove, where Daniel R. Nelson lives and works. From there, Valley-Wide Appraisal Services regularly covers the 19 counties listed below.
The graphic above is a decorative illustration of that coverage radiating outward from Elk Grove — it isn't a literal map, and it doesn't show county lines. For the actual list of counties served, see the list below.

Tahoe is a different market
Placer, El Dorado, and Nevada counties are included above, but each extends toward Lake Tahoe, which is a distinctly different market from the rest of the coverage area. Assignments in those higher-elevation, resort-market areas are quoted individually rather than treated as routine work.
Properties just outside these counties
If a property falls just outside the 19 counties listed above, it may still be considered on a case-by-case basis. Travel beyond the immediate area can affect the quote, so reach out with the property address and the appraisal will either be scheduled or you'll be pointed toward a more local option.
