Disappointing Experience with Appraisal Service
Unreliable Appraisal Values
Reviewers have expressed frustration with the appraisal service, citing unfair and inaccurate appraisals that resulted in financial losses. The reviewer, Debra M., shared a personal experience where their business property was appraised at $100,000 in May 2017, which was significantly lower than its actual value. Despite presenting comparable properties with higher values, the appraisal company refused to reappraise the property.
Lack of Accountability
The reviewer's experience highlights the company's lack of accountability and unwillingness to revisit their appraisal values. The fact that the property was later sold for $200,000 in September 2017, just a few months after the appraisal, further emphasizes the inaccuracies of the original appraisal.
Questionable Business Practices
The reviewer's experience raises concerns about the appraisal company's business practices and their potential impact on clients. The incident has led to a loss of trust in the appraisal service and its reliability.
