About Alec


Alec Raven is a Certified General Appraiser with a deep connection to and passion for the agricultural heritage of Northern California.





  Raised on a small vineyard in Sonoma County, Alec developed a passion for land and property early on, shaping a career path that now focuses on the valuation of agricultural properties across Sonoma, Napa, and Mendocino counties.

Alec obtained his first two appraisal certifications in Sonoma County before pursuing his third in San Luis Obispo, where he trained under the mentorship of a seasoned agricultural appraiser and a seasoned commercial appraiser. This invaluable mentorship solidified his decision to specialize in agricultural appraisals, allowing him to align his professional expertise with his personal passion for the land.

With a degree in Agricultural Business from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where he also competed as a Division 1 basketball player, Alec blends the discipline of an athlete with the precision of a seasoned appraiser. His work
spans  vineyards, orchards, ranches, and other agricultural properties, offering clients a unique blend of local insight and professional accuracy.

Alec’s commitment to excellence in every appraisal has earned him a reputation for thoroughness and reliability. Whether assisting with estate planning, financing, or property purchases, Alec’s expertise ensures that clients receive the most accurate and well-informed assessments of their agricultural properties.

When not working, Alec enjoys exploring the landscapes that inspire him and supporting local agricultural efforts in the community.
