In Brampton, Payotte selected one verified certified appraiser for 2026 in each of the 5 covered sectors: Mushtaq Khan (Downtown Brampton, 79/100); Mushtaq Khan (Brampton North, 79/100); Mushtaq Khan (Brampton South, 79/100); Mushtaq Khan (Brampton West, 79/100); Thomas Bremner, CRA (Brampton East, 77/100). The selection rests on public data — Google reviews, years of experience, licence or membership, local presence — with no commission or advertising; each one's credential can be checked at the issuing body's register.
An appraiser estimates a property's market value for a purchase, refinancing, estate, separation or dispute — a signed report that carries weight with lenders, insurers and courts, unlike a broker's informal estimate. The professional designation is the key signal. Before retaining one, verify an active designation (AACI or CRA from the Appraisal Institute of Canada, or the provincial equivalent), experience with the property type involved, and a real footing in the local market. Payotte verifies the designation individually on the official register and recommends a single appraiser per sector of Brampton.

The Brampton real estate market
As of August 2026, the MLS benchmark price in Brampton stood at $834,800, down 5.8% year-over-year. The average home, all property types combined, traded near $886,865. Inventory sat at roughly 4.8 months of supply, and homes took about 35 days to sell.
How many Brampton sectors have a verified certified appraiser?
5 of 5 sectors listed in Brampton. Payotte publishes ONE professional per sector and trade: the table above lists every covered sector, with the selected name and its score out of 100.
When do you need a professional appraiser?
Your lender orders the appraisal for a financed purchase itself. You need your own appraiser for an estate, a division after separation, an assessment appeal, a dispute or a sale between relatives: it is the only report that holds up in court or with the tax authorities.
Appraisal or inspection: what is the difference?
The appraiser sets the market VALUE from comparable sales; the inspector examines the CONDITION of the building. One does not replace the other: a careful purchase needs both.
How is the Brampton certified appraiser selected?
Payotte applies an independent 100-point scoring protocol: Google reviews (35 pts), total experience (30 pts), active provincial licence (15 pts), declared local presence (15 pts), and verifiable bonus (5 pts). No commission, no advertising. The licence number is published so you can check it yourself at the regulator's register.
Does Payotte earn a commission?
No. Payotte is a free, independent, ad-free service. No commission is earned and no professional pays to appear on the site.
How much does a property appraisal cost?
Published figures for a residential appraisal (financing or market value) range from $150 to $600 depending on the source and year: Ratehub cites $150–$500, Nesto $300–$500 (March 2025), WOWA $300–$600 (August 2025) and CMHC $250–$350. Sources genuinely diverge, so Payotte reports the spread rather than a blended number.
When the appraisal is ordered for a mortgage, the borrower usually pays the fee — but the appraiser's client is the lender (Appraisal Institute of Canada).
