Serving La Jolla from the San Clemente Office

Mat Just has been appraising properties across Southern California since 2002, with 24 years of deep experience in the Orange County coastal market. The San Clemente office sits at the Orange County–San Diego county line, making La Jolla and surrounding coastal communities a regular part of the practice.

For estate and legal work especially, what matters isn't just being nearby — it's knowing how to find defensible comparable sales, deliver reports on deadline, and coordinate directly with attorneys, CPAs, and executors. That's the same standard applied in every market Mat serves.

Licensed & Certified

Mat holds a California State Certified Residential Appraiser license through the Bureau of Real Estate Appraisers (BREA License #AR029995) and is a licensed California real estate agent.

  • "Excellent service, fast, friendly, professional private party appraisal. I'm a CPA. I service a lot of trusts and entities for tax. I have a need for really fast turnaround. Mat knew what I needed, and he was able to see me that day. I got an accurate appraisal in half the time of other appraisers I've used. My client was elated. I will definitely be using Mat in the future."

  • "Mat from Just Appraisals was great. Called for a few real estate questions on home values — his answers were more than valuable. He then was able to get to my property within a few days and had his report ready 24 hours later. He was very prompt and professional. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a home appraisal. Thanks again Mat."
