Local expertise you can rely on.

Jonny Galan founded Country First Appraisal and brings more than 20 years of experience in real estate appraisal, investments and management. He founded Country First Appraisal with the belief that people should have the help they need in their real estate dealings instead of going it alone.

As an active real estate investor, Jonny has successfully built and managed a multi-million dollar portfolio across hundreds of transactions. That hands-on experience gives him a practical understanding of property from the perspective of the buyer, the seller and the owner. He knows what is at stake in these decisions and is glad to talk through your situation by phone or email before you order.

That local depth matters. Thanks to Jonny’s leadership, our firm knows how neighborhoods, submarkets and prices shift from one part of DFW to the next, and we bring that insight to every assignment so the value you receive reflects the real market, not a rough guess.

We work with investors, attorneys, accountants, lenders and homeowners, so every report is written to hold up to professional review. Whether you need a date-of-death value, a divorce valuation, support for a property tax protest or a pre-listing price, we explain the process in plain language and make it easy to get what you need.

Jonny also serves as a member of the land and building team at his church where he has helped his church successfully acquire a large parcel of land and navigate the building process.
