AVSO Land Appraisal: HAVASU RIVIERA MARINA LAND SA

The Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center is seeking a Certified General Appraiser to conduct a land appraisal for the Havasu Riviera Marina property in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. The appraisal must cover approximately 17.39 acres of improved property located on the eastern shore of Lake Havasu, but the property must be appraised as vacant land using a hypothetical condition that assumes no unauthorized improvements exist. Bidders must hold a valid Arizona Certified General Appraiser license and will be evaluated based on state certification, technical capabilities, delivery date, past performance, and price quote. The contract will be structured as a firm-fixed-price agreement with a 235-day period of performance and an initial appraisal target date of 60 calendar days from award. Following an amendment, the deadline for submitting quotations has been extended to July 21, 2025, at 3:00 PM Mountain Daylight Time, with electronic submission required to the specified contracting officers.

This solicitation is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 531320 for Offices of Real Estate Appraisers. No incumbent contractors or potential award values are mentioned in the available documentation. The appraisal work involves a single 17.39-acre parcel that must be valued as vacant land with the highest and best use methodology, excluding riparian or littoral rights and offshore breakwater improvements from the valuation. The final delivery date has been established at 115 days after the award date, with performance taking place at the subject property location in Mohave County, Arizona. The government has clarified through a Q&A document that while on-site inspections are generally required for comparable properties, the Appraisal and Valuation Services Office will consider modified inspection scopes on a case-by-case basis subject to written approval from the Review Appraiser.
