We Are Both Colleagues And Family

Our company was founded in 2013 by two lifelong friends and real estate appraisers, Julius T. Frankeny and Steven Weber. Our founders started small, operating out of their own homes, with a shared vision and passion for bringing their real estate valuation skillset to homeowners and homebuyers throughout the Greater Houston market areas.

“We started Aegis because we wanted to be contributing members in our community. I felt our expertise as real estate appraisers gave us a way to do precisely that – by creating Aegis, we built a company founded on the principle of helping people make sound decisions when it comes to their homes.”

 

– Julius T. Frankeny

Time went on, and our reputation of providing quality valuation services spread like wildfire. Since then, our staff has expanded to include a team of real estate appraisers across southeast Texas, enabling us to provide excellent and dependable service to well over 500 loyal clients.

At Aegis Appraisals, we are both colleagues and family. As native Texans, we value our clients as we would our own neighbors. As a family business, we treat our clients with the same integrity, respect, and dignity as we would our own family.

Above all else, our goal is to help members of our community make well-informed financial decisions when it comes to their largest assets, their homes. We’re on a mission to prove the indispensable value of our profession through our indisputable integrity and by exceeding all expectations in our service.

Integrity as a real estate appraiser means following your principles and remaining truthful and factual no matter what the situation is. Real estate appraisers must remain unbiased and function with the highest ethical standards, operating with honesty and transparency in everything they do. We don’t simply talk about about integrity, we strive to prove our ethics and principles through every interaction we have and every appraisal we complete.

We use the latest technology available today to complete appraisals, enhancing the quality and accuracy of our reports. Keeping up with new technology allows us to provide more comprehensive reports, quicker turnaround times, and of course, the very best in customer service.

We work hard to provide fast and efficient quality service for our clients. As part of that commitment, we’ve embraced mobile technology, laser measuring technology, LiDAR technology, and cloud technology for unbeatable efficiency and accuracy. 

The appraisal process is nothing if not a detail-oriented activity. We spend quite a bit of time obtaining both specific information about the subject property and general data about the local market and developing trends. With all of our information entered on mobile devices, we can sync to the cloud and pull the data into our software at the office, giving us more time to focus on evaluating and less on data entry. Cloud technology helps to make our appraisals more accurate, too. It provides us constant access to our data through our devices, and our mobile appraising apps ensure we don’t miss a single step.
