Welcome to Peter Ryks Property Services Ltd, the premiere real estate consulting and valuation firm in the central interior of British Columbia. Our office is located in Vanderhoof but we serve an area from Prince George to Smithers.

We offer value related services to reflect the property types within our region, from forested land to multi storey office buildings. Peter has considerable experience in the valuation of commercial and industrial properties as well as agricultural, recreational and residential.

An appraisal, quite simply, is an estimate of value. A good appraisal provides evidence and analysis leading to a reasonable conclusion of value in accordance to the Canadian Standards. Peter believes members of the Appraisal Institute of Canada have the best training and highest standards to complete value related property services.

Appraisal and consulting services may be required for:

  • Mortgage financing
  • Buying and selling
  • Estate or corporate planning
  • Insurance
  • Taxation
  • Fair market rental for arbitration
  • Taxation or assessment appeal
  • Right of ways and easements
  • Ecological gifts

Appraisals have been completed for a wide variety of clients including:

  • All major banks and financial institutions
  • Municipal, provincial and federal levels of government
  • Legal and accounting firms
  • Corporate clients
  • First Nations

Whether buying, selling or lending, you need the right value. Anyone can have an opinion, but the market place is highly variable, depending on location, economic factors and unique property characteristics. The buyer doesn't want to pay too much but the seller wants the best price. Only a well researched appraisal will provide the most accurate value.
