Based in San Clemente. 20 Minutes from the County Line.

Mat Just has been appraising properties across Southern California since 2002 — with 24 years of deep experience in Orange County and regular assignments throughout the northern San Diego coastal corridor. The San Clemente office sits right at the county border, making La Jolla, Encinitas, Cardiff, and surrounding communities a natural part of the practice.

For estate and legal work especially, the relevant expertise isn't just familiarity with a zip code — it's knowing how to find defensible comparable sales, how courts and attorneys expect reports to be structured, and how to deliver on tight deadlines. That carries from Orange County into San Diego without skipping a beat.

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.

  • "Mat from Just Appraisals was great. Called for a few real estate questions on home values — his answers were more than valuable.

Thanks again Mat."
