For land appraisals, mine have always been outsourced to companies all across Texas depending on who has availability to come out and appraise a large tract of land. For some more color, are you needing an appraisal on a piece of land that you already own, are looking to purchase (and appraisal is needed by a lender), or for another reason? Depending on the size of the tract as well, may have some folks that could do it for a reasonable cost. Alternatively if it is not for any lending institution or regulatory body, a BPO (broker price opinion) may be adequate and significantly cheaper (last large land appraisal I ordered was $20k+ with a 90+ day turnaround time due to a lack of appraisers with availability to appraise large tracts.

For surveyors, there are some phenomenal choices in the Lubbock area. For the most part, Hugo Reed is the largest (or one of the largest) in the area and takes the lion's share of surveying busines in the area, particularly for large jobs. 

J.N. Newton & Associates out of Seminole, TX to the south is another great surveying outfit that has lots of experience with land and has come to the rescue for myself and my farm, ranch, & development clients on multiple occasions. Cannot go wrong with either of these companies.

Hope this helps! Feel free to shoot me a message if you have any more questions or need any recommendations for the Lubbock area.

All the best,
Matt Moreland
