At Aladdin Appraisal, our daily work is about clarity and confidence. We help people make better real estate decisions so they can move forward with less stress and more peace of mind.
Every so often, we get to see that mission come to life in a very tangible way
A School Hit Hard By Typhoon Tino
On January 11, 2026, our extended Aladdin Appraisal family gathered at R&S Abindan Elementary School in Bago City, Negros Occidental in the Philippines. The school community had been severely affected by Typhoon Tino. Classrooms, homes, and daily routines were disrupted. Even so, the students kept showing up with courage and hope.
Together with school leaders and volunteers, we helped host a holiday gift giving program for the learners and their families. The theme said it all.
“Aladdin Appraisals Gift Giving: Restoring Hope, Rebuilding Lives.”
The covered court filled with children, parents, teachers, and neighbors. Students lined up with their classmates. Families received simple but meaningful gifts and relief items. What stood out most were the smiles and the sense of community, even after such a difficult season.
A Certificate We Will Always Treasure
At the close of the event, R&S Abindan Elementary School and the Schools Division of Bago City presented Aladdin Appraisals with a Certificate of Appreciation. The citation thanked our team for supporting the school based outreach program and for helping provide hope, strengthened resilience, and uplift to the affected school community after Typhoon Tino.
For us, that recognition is not about publicity. It is a reminder of why our work exists in the first place. Behind every appraisal report are real people, real families, and real futures.
Why Community Giving Matters To Us
Real estate decisions can feel overwhelming without clear guidance. Our role in Greater Boston is to serve as trusted guides who provide accurate, reliable appraisals that reduce stress and help clients make informed decisions.
But our vision is bigger than individual assignments. We believe each appraisal should help build stronger communities for children and families.
That is why a portion of our proceeds supports Family Access of Newton, a nonprofit that serves families across Eastern Massachusetts. Their work strengthens local families through education, childcare, and support services.
Supporting this gift giving program in the Philippines fits that same heart. When a school community is hurting after a storm, practical help and a sense of being seen can make a real difference. We were honored to play a small part.
How Your Appraisal Helped Make This Possible
Since 2006, Aladdin Appraisal has completed thousands of residential and commercial appraisals across the Greater Boston area. Behind each assignment is the same mission. Bring clarity, reduce stress, and give people confidence in their next step.
That includes:
Estate and date of death appraisals that help families settle a loved one’s affairs
Divorce appraisals that support fair division of property
Pre listing and pre purchase appraisals that help homeowners and buyers avoid costly pricing mistakes
Tax appeal appraisals that give homeowners a credible way to challenge an assessment
Specialized work for attorneys, investors, and private lenders who need clear, well supported values
When you choose to work with us for these important moments, you do more than receive a report. You help sustain a team that can continue to give, both here and abroad.
Your trust in our firm helped put food on tables, gifts in children’s hands, and encouragement into a community that had faced a very hard season after Typhoon Tino.
Clarity At Home, Impact Abroad
We know that when you contact us, you are often in the middle of a major life transition.
You might be:
Handling an estate after the loss of a loved one
Working through a divorce and needing a fair, neutral opinion of value
Planning to sell a home and wanting to price it correctly
Challenging a property tax assessment that feels too high
In these moments, guesswork is not good enough. You need an appraisal that is clear, unbiased, and backed by solid data. That is the standard we bring to every assignment.
At the same time, we believe that kind of careful work can create a ripple effect. Each accurate appraisal helps protect your financial future and also helps us keep supporting children and families, whether through Family Access of Newton here in Eastern Massachusetts or through special projects like the gift giving day in Bago City.
Looking Ahead
Our commitment for the coming year is simple:
Continue to deliver clear, defensible appraisals for homeowners, attorneys, lenders, and investors in Greater Boston
Continue to support children and families across Eastern Massachusetts through our nonprofit partners
Continue to look for meaningful ways to come alongside communities connected to our team, including in the Philippines
We are grateful every time you invite us into your real estate decisions. It is a responsibility we take seriously and a trust we work hard to honor.
