Hello Qpet and thank you for your question.
An appraisal is made by an appraiser, usually an architect, who is
recognized as a Perito Valuador, or Official Appraiser, by the
property tax authorities in the municipality where the property is
located.
http://www.loscabosguide.com/realest/lcre98rv.htm
“The cost for this will range from US$ 150. to US $1,000. depending
upon the value of the property. (..) This establishes value for
purposes of tax liability for the buyer and the seller and is required
by the Notary Public for preparation of the deed of transfer. The
appraisal is made by a government appointee, often an architect, who
is called Perito Valuador or Official Appraiser.”
