Mission Statement – “To provide high-quality appraisals and consultation services to my valued clients in a professional and courteous manner.”

 As a State Certified Residential Appraiser in the state of South Dakota, I have the experience and qualifications to provide the type of credible property value opinions that my clients need to make their important decisions. It doesn't matter what type of real property you have. My knowledge of local neighborhoods and markets as an appraiser makes me qualified to provide home valuations in Minnehaha and Lincoln Counties for clients ranging from national mortgage companies to local lenders or individual businesses and consumers.

Rysavy Appraisal Service was established in 1984 by August “Gus” Rysavy and is the premier leader in the Sioux Falls Metro area (Minnehaha and Lincoln Counties) providing appraisals for:

• Primary and Secondary Mortgages 
• FHA Mortgages
• Mortgage Refinancing
• Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) Removal
• Reinstating a HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit)
• Buying or selling your home
• Home improvements
• Investment property
• Estate Appraisals

A few of the cities and towns I cover - Baltic, Brandon, Dell Rapids, Canton, Colton, Crooks, Harrisburg, Hartford, Humboldt, Garretson, Lennox, Sherman, Sioux Falls, Tea, and Worthing.

My investment in training and technology has helped my customers greatly reduce their workload. By offering online appraisal ordering, and electronic delivery of the final product, I am able to offer more efficient and faster responses to my clients needs.

Through this website, ordering an appraisal is just a click away.

I look forward to working with you! James “Jim” Rysavy, MRA
