Consultation and review appraisal of three (3) tracts

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Forestry has established an Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) focused on review appraisal services for land acquisition projects, specifically supporting the Forest Legacy Program. This contract enables the procurement of professional appraisal review services for land tracts in Ohio, with a primary emphasis on evaluating potential forest and conservation land acquisitions. The IDV covers comprehensive appraisal review tasks, including verifying original appraisal data, assessing hypothetical conditions, preparing compliance reports under Uniform Standards of Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (UASFLA), and delivering electronic review reports for land parcels.

The IDV (Agency Administered CTR034978) is awarded to Stephen Ewan Inc. and is administered by the DNR Division of Forestry, with a performance period from the award date of November 24, 2025, to June 30, 2026. The contract is specifically scoped for real estate appraisal and valuation services within Ohio, with a potential total award value of $6,000 for up to three land acquisition project reviews. The contract is partially funded by a USDA Forest Service federal grant and allows for review appraisal services on land tracts in counties such as Scioto and Pike, with a focus on protecting environmentally significant forestlands from non-forest conversions.
