1.2 Background
The City of Raleigh (“City”), the Capital City of North Carolina, remains one of the fastest
growing areas in the country. A great economy, top educational institutions, and
exceptional health care facilities are some of the characteristics that attract people to the
triangle area. The mild climate, diverse work force and proximity to Research Triangle
Park combine to make Raleigh a great place to live.
Raleigh is a 21st Century City of Innovation focusing on environmental, cultural, and
economic sustainability. The City conserves and protects our environmental resources
through best practice and cutting-edge conservation and stewardship, land use,
infrastructure and building technologies. The City welcomes growth and diversity through
policies and programs that will protect and enhance Raleigh’s existing neighborhoods,
natural amenities, history, and cultural and human resources for future generations. The
City leads to improve quality of life for neighborhoods and standard of living for all citizens.
The City works with universities, colleges, citizens, and local partners to promote new
technology, create new job opportunities, and encourage local businesses and
entrepreneurs. The City enlists and prepares 21st Century staff with the skill sets to carry
out the duties of the City through transparent civic engagement and by providing the very
best customer service to our citizens.
The selected firm will serve as the City’s property appraisal provider and will assist the
Risk Management Division in establishing reliable replacement cost and/or market value
estimates for various municipal facilities and properties. These valuations are necessary
to ensure appropriate insurance coverage levels, support claims management, maintain
2
compliance with financial reporting requirements, and assist the City in effectively
managing potential risk exposures.
The initial contract year will include a full, City-wide inspection and appraisal of all
properties, followed by an annual trending or “desktop” analysis for subsequent contract
years.
The anticipated contract period for these appraisal services is five (5) years commencing
with the date that the award is effective January 1, 2027, with an option to extend the
contract period for one (1) additional five (5) year extension at the City’s discretion. The
first full appraisal shall be completed no later than March 1, 2027, and the subsequent
trending analysis appraisals shall be delivered by February 1 each of the following (4) four
years.
Through this competitive procurement process, the City seeks to identify a firm with
demonstrated expertise in public-sector property appraisal, knowledge of applicable
appraisal standards, and the capacity to perform timely, thorough, and professional
valuation services for a diverse portfolio of municipal assets.
