Appraisal - Klickitat County

The Washington State Department of Natural Resources is soliciting proposals from its existing list of approved appraisers under solicitation number 2026-049 to provide a market value opinion for property rights in Klickitat County slated for encumbrance by a conservation easement. This work order solicitation, funded by federal dollars, requires the delivery of one electronic appraisal report that adheres to the Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a focus on certified general appraisers who meet specific competency rules. The project requires strict adherence to the Yellow Book standards, with UASFLA taking precedence over USPAP. All payments must be reported through the Access Equity system, and reimbursement is contingent upon the approval of the final appraisal report by a qualified review appraiser. Proposals must be submitted electronically by October 26, 2026, and include a cost proposal and a subcontractor inclusion plan. The agency strongly encourages participation from small, minority, women-owned, and veteran-owned businesses certified through WEBS.
