Western Valuation Solutions LLC

Western Valuation Solutions LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Rocklin, California, provides federal land appraisal and real estate valuation services to the Department of the Interior as a prime contractor exclusively under Total Small Business set-asides. The firm operates as a limited liability company and competes 100% within small business set-aside categories across all fourteen tracked awards.

Western Valuation Solutions delivers market valuation, appraisal reporting, and property assessment services for federal land acquisitions, exchanges, and wildlife refuge management. Work is grounded in USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice) and UASFLA (Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions) compliance. Representative engagements include a $35 thousand appraisal for the Pine Forest Land Exchange (approximately 720 acres of non-federal land proposed for Bureau of Land Management acquisition in Humboldt County, Nevada, awarded August 30, 2024); a $36.5 thousand engagement for the Anaconda Mine Conveyance appraisal in Fernley, Nevada (awarded July 16, 2024); and a $22 thousand market rent valuation of 130.1 acres for the Robinson Summit Substation expansion in White Pine County, Nevada (awarded January 26, 2026). The firm has also appraised properties for affordable housing development, including a $15 thousand valuation of a 10-gross-acre vacant residential parcel in Clark County, Nevada designated for 320 rental units.

Customer concentration is highly concentrated within the Department of the Interior. The Department of the Interior's Office of Policy Management and Budget accounts for 12 of 14 awards and $262 thousand of $288 thousand in combined potential value (91% coverage). Two additional awards flow through the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service regions—Region 1 and Region 8—making Interior the sole federal customer across the tracked footprint. Work performance spans western states, primarily Nevada and California, reflecting the geographic focus of Interior's land management portfolio in those regions.

Activity has declined year over year from 9 awards in 2024 to 2 in 2025 to 3 in 2026 through mid-July. Three awards (combined potential value $50 thousand) carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and face recompete. The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor with no recorded subcontract footprint. All fourteen awards fall under NAICS 531320 (Offices of Real Estate Appraisers) and PSC Support—Professional: Real Property Appraisals, reflecting a specialized, narrow capability focus aligned with Interior's appraisal and land valuation workflow.
