About Us

In 1973, Linn A. Duesterbeck founded L.A. Duesterbeck & Associates as a single person operation in Janesville, Wisconsin. Since that time, the company has grown into the leading commercial real estate appraisal company serving Wisconsin and Northern Illinois with over 100 clients. Our regional appraisal firm is widely recognized and well respected by local, regional, and national clients. Linn has since retired, with Troy J. Kruser, MAI, responsible for maintaining the company's long standing reputation for well-researched and prepared appraisal reports, provided in a timely manner with top-level client communication and follow up to any questions.
