Cornerstone Appraisal Services, LLC: what do users think?
Kate AuBuchon: I very rarely leave reviews and almost never leave negative reviews. However, we were very disappointed with this company. Sean appraised our home for a refinance we were pursuing and appraised our home for $110k less than the bank’s estimate, as well as roughly $90k under what every real estate website estimated our home to be not including the many updates we had done in our two years of ownership. Sean was very polite the day of our appraisal and I had a great time chatting with him. I was shocked to learn Sean spoke very negatively of us to our lender. He then refused to speak with us and give us an explanation for his extremely low appraisal. We’ve worked with a highly respected real estate agent who also used comps to evaluate our home and it was also $100k more than Sean’s appraisal.
William Wymore: Highly recommend this company!
Gloria Skinner: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueSean and his team were amazing to work with very helpful and very knowledgeable and very quick to return calls or handle any issues that come about very friendly i give them 100...
Louella Cook Sevier: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueOutstanding, positive experience experience! The appraiser was very accommodating answered all my questions as well as listing the improvement and upgrade we have done to our home.
Sandy: Critical:ProfessionalismAppraisal before divorce. 2 years prior Appraisal was alot more.And a 10,000. Kitchen put in and lot of other improvements. And after divorce appraised for more. Ex followed appraiser around. Not professional
Dustin O'Neal: Positive:ProfessionalismThey were super helpful, even for myself who was not a customer and was just calling to ask about possibly getting an appraisal. Would definitely consider them in the future
Roshani S: Incredibly helpful and polite!
Wyatt Long: Sean is always great to work with. Customer service is top notch and he is great to answer questions when needed. He is always timely and professional to work with. Highly recommend.
Geoff Bowsher: Sean is an excellent appraiser and I would feel comfortable using him for any transaction. He has a high level of integrity and always strives to make the process as smooth as possible.
Christina Romaniak: Exactly as I expected. Polite and fast.
Christina Dicken: I work for a local lender as a staff appraiser. I often use Cornerstone to supplement the appraisals I cannot get to. I find them to be professional and accurate. Market data and common sense support their values which is not always the case with other appraisers. I do not want an appraiser to give me a number he/she thinks I need to get the deal closed. I want an accurate opinion of value so our underwriters have reliable basis for making lending decisions. Cornerstone provides that solid foundation. The nature of the appraisal business opens the door for unhappy buyers, sellers and realtors when the market doesn't support a value they want. But if your goal is an honest, well supported opinion of value, Cornerstone will get you there.
Jacob Willis: Sean is a great guy and knows his stuff. He was able to help me out with getting an accurate home value estimate. Highly recommend.
Tassilyn Fry: Sean and his office have always been great to work with and professional. I always receive communications in a timely manner.
Paul Brackett: I had some questions about the appraisal process and not only were the questions sufficiently answered, but they were answered very quickly. I would definitely choose Cornerstone Appraisal Services for my next appraisal.
L G: Sean was very professional, arrived in a timely manner, and did a complete appraisal of my property. Would call him again if in need. Thanks, Sean
Sherie Payne: Sean's knowledge and expertise in real estate appraising is a huge advantage to anyone that uses his services. He puts his skillset to work in order to present competent reports in a timely manner. Without a doubt, I would confidently recommend Sean, and have, to anyone in need of real estate appraisal services.
Robert Monier: Sean was professional and knowledgeable. He gave me valuable information concerning the Greene County Board of Equalization. I would use him again in a heartbeat.
Gail Tuck: I would highly recommend this company . He is very thorough and explained to me in detail of questions that I had ask him about tbe home.
Tara New: Excellent Appraisal Service! Easy to work with, very personable. I have used him for appraisal services for several years and I have always been satisfied with his work! I will continue to use this company as well, highly recommended!
Andrew Mezzacapa: Appraisal was under value. Was told they could not appraise for more than purchase price. How is that fair? They did not call when arriving at home. They hung up on me and would not return a call because I was asking questions. Review would have been much better if they would have just returned a phone call. Poor customer service.

I would definitely recommend them for all your appraisal or inspection needs!

Appraisal First, Inc: what do users think?
Jerry M: we had no say in this less then professional picture taker I mean lets start with the appraisals even the agent and the realtor couldnt believe the comps you used or the value you appraised it at. I mean 5 homes sold on same block u didnt use. all within last 1 and half years. my wife showed me your pics and the finished product. pathetic. dumfounded on your break down and worse of all the pics you took showing private stuff in sheds that have no bearing on the appraisal and no business of anyone whats in my sheds!!! invasion of privacy your appraisal has nothing to do with the contents on a shed or garage.. you are just pathetic. unprofessional and just not worthy of one star. taking pics of our trash piled outside for burn pile or hole being filled for the pool we just took out make no sense. and the content of my garage is none of the worlds business. i work 6 days a wee and have over 12 yrs of stuff built up from the years of not being home it dont look pretty for sure but no reason to show the world what i have. say what you will but its so unprofessional.
Jay Opera: Have you ever had that client who has fallen in love with the property (and starts the process to buy it at 5% below list) but then decides to use psychology by introducing further negotiation. It is a tactical play which is certainly ok. That’s when I made a time sensitive call to Ariana Calvert of Appraisal First, Inc. and sought an expedited return on a property appraisal and analysis. She immediately took all the pertinent information about my property and was out surveying it within three hours. I received her appraisal by early that very evening. This allowed me an impressive turn around showing the interested client a fair price. And, they agreed! I will use Ariana time and time again! You. Should. Too!!! 👍👍
Justin Beightol: Jim did a fantastic job of representing our house in photos and measurements even with a lot of last minute fix it construction. He and his team are very friendly, schedule friendly and do a great job at putting it all together.As for the other reviews, The only thing I can tell you is they use ANSI standards which is recognized nationwide and required by many places now. It is not how our county measures sq ft or stairs, etc. Each mortgage company requires different formats, measurements etc. it’s also a boom for sales and everything is slow.
Jaime Looney: I am a real estate agent and have used Appraisal First multiple times now. Ariana Calvert is the appraiser that I always use and she always goes above and beyond. She is extremely meticulous, proficient and punctual. I highly recommend using this company and especially Ariana!
Andrea Voelker: Ariana appraised my employer's building and did a fantastic job! She was very thorough, precise and professional. I plan on using Appraisal First for my fathers estate!
Rebecca Patterson: Great company and Arianna was exceptional! Couldn't be more happy with the service! Thanks again!
Scott Montgomery: I had a fantastic experience with this business. We asked them to appraise an older building from the 1800s. They were prompt and extremely professional and the price was very reasonable. The appraisal which we received was of the highest quality and met our needs. We will always use Appraisal First. I highly recommend them.
Becky Pinkerton: I used Appraisal First to appraise a property I was considering purchasing before making an offer. Ariana bent over backwards to make an accurate assessment of a difficult to appraise property. They were very professional and had the appraisal completed in a timely manner.
Rodlfo Vargas: If I could give negative stars I would without even thinking twice.James Hollenberg was selected by our mortgage company to do the appraisal for our first home. Not only was he late with the initial appraisal report but he was almost impossible to get ahold of to do the follow up after necessary repairs were completed...only 2 days after the initial report was done! After he finally showed up to assess the repairs and then finally turned the report in...late again for closing date...we found at least two errors in his report that required him to fix it. This prompted the lending company to go through the entire report with a fine toothed comb to look for any other errors he may have made. All of this nonsense pushed our closing date out by almost 2 weeks. We own our own business in the transportation industry and lose money every day we sit here waiting. The only thing holding back the process was this person's lack of attention to detail, time management capabilities and complete and total unprofessionalism.Long story short this appraiser is literally costing us thousands of dollars simply by not being able to do his job correctly or in a timely manner. I will be telling anyone and everyone I see not use this appraisal company for so much as thinking about your property much less appraising it. If I had paid for this myself I would be asking for a refund. As it is they should probably be compensating me for all the money I've lost by not being able to work!
Kim Parrott: We recently had a refinance done that needed a new appraisal. Just a reminder we only bought the house 1 year ago and now it’s 70,000 less than we paid for it. The home is on 25 acres and not a comparable close to ours was used. These people are absolutely unintelligent and can not do the job they were asked to do by our mortgage company. Please if I could give less than 1 star I would.I don’t normally write reviews but homeowners need to be alerted.
brenda kniffen: Absolutely horrible! First shorted out square footage by 300 sq ft from our original appraisal for buying our house and didn’t use the comps of the houses recently sold in our exact neighborhood with the exact same house being built right next to us! Do not go with appraisals first inc or Bevin pope. If I could give less than 1 star I would.
Michael Fusaro: Absolutely horrible! I've been waiting to receive my appraisel for 2 weeks now. Still haven't received it. Jim told me 5 days in a row that he would have it to me by the end of the day but at the end of each day still no appraisal. Now Jim won't answer my phone calls or return a call after many voicemails left. Never do business with them!

Quality General Appraisals & Inspections: what do users think?
Kimberly Clift: Scott was very thorough and went over areas of concern more than once for me. He was helpful and professional.
Brian Tolley: Scott did a fantastic job inspecting the home we're purchasing. In addition to the inspection report, he took the time to explain and show me some of the issues that needed to be repaired. He was very friendly and informative about the the repairs needed. I had him come out again for a reinspection after the issues had been fixed to make sure everything was done correctly. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting a good quality home inspection.
paula martin: Scott was very professional and helpful, answered any questions that were asked. I would definitely use this company again.
Steve Fornshell: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueGreat experience working with them. They do quality work and also offer great perks like warranties and even a free Sam's Club membership! Scott was very professional and knowledgeable when going over his inspection with us. Couldn't ask for a better experience.
Julie Sewell: Positive:ProfessionalismScott was amazing he did such a good job he was very informative.
Rich J: Scott did an amazing job inspecting a home for us. He responded immediately to any questions I had about the process before the inspection and also found us a company to inspect the septic tank. At the house Scott went over everything he had found and answered all the questions we had (we had a lot). He did a great job and made us feel confident about the home purchase. The online report made it easy to select the items we would ask the homeowner to fix before the sale. After the inspection I texted him about an item I had forgotten to ask about at the inspection and he immediately responded. He also gave me a recommendation for a company to do some other work if needed. It is rare to find someone like Scott who takes pride and ownership of his work.
Justin Gaines: Services:Multi-unit inspections,Pre-listing inspections
Laci Alexander: When our house was inspected, I appreciated the fact that Scott called us and walked us through his findings and what needed to be fixed right away and the best way to do that. He was more than helpful and ready to assist with any questions that we had. I would highly recommend him for an inspection
Jared B.: When we were putting an offer on a house, we used Quality General for an inspection. They covered the whole house from top to bottom and explained their findings plainly and thoroughly, paying special attention to those issues that needed to be fixed the soonest. When the seller agreed to fix some of the most critical issues, they went back out to ensure that the fixes had been done in a satisfactory manner. I would recommend using Quality General for any type of house inspection.
sheila wickham: Quality general appraisals and inspections did our home inspection for us. Scott was very informative on what to expect during inspection, while being professional and answering any questions we had. Scott was very thorough during his inspection and even went above and beyond what most inspectors would do. He had the report back to us in just a few hours! He went over everything with us making us feel so comfortable in the fact that we were purchasing our first home! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Will definitely be using them again!
Aaron Boston: Quality General Appraisals & Inspections is an outstanding company! I would definitely recommend their services without hesitation.

He explained the process to me and answered all my questions kindly and thoroughly. I felt comfortable with him and felt that he had my best interest in mind. If I ever buy another house, I will most definitely call this company again.
Cecelia Ness: The best people to work with! Very thorough work and always done right!
Nathan White: Scott did an inspection for our first home, and he did an awesome job. He was very thorough in checking everything. You hear some stories of inspectors scimping by, but that is not the case with this company. He spent the whole day doing the inspection and even came back another day to inspect some other things.Scott is very easy to work and get along with. He does a great job explaining everything to you instead of just marking it on a form. I would highly recommend using him as your home inspector.
Lawrence Welty: Outstanding Service, The attention to detail, and the use of the most updated equipment for the inspection of our future home , along with the knowledge and experience of the inspector was above and beyond any experience we have had in the past.We Highly Recommend to anyone who wishes to have the most professional and detailed inspection of your current or future home.Lawrence Welty

The recall check and warranties provided were icing on the cake! We will use Quality General Home Inspections again, and would highly recommend their services!
Christina Nonneman: Quality General Home Inspection went above and beyond when hired to inspect a home we are in the process of purchasing! They were able to get the home inspected the very next day, and addressed every concern we had. They had the inspection report done the morning after inspection and we were able to continue negotiating on our soon to be home:) The inspectors were very professional and personable and helped reassure us the home we were buying didn’t have any issues and it wouldn’t cause us any issues in the near future. They also offered us a FREE warranty on any issues that immediately arise, the roof and appliances being part of it! Amazing company!

Park Place Appraisals: what do users think?
Holly Pomrening: DO NOT use Nicholas R Schafer at Park Place Appraisals!!He OBVIOUSLY needs more training in Appraisals(he will say he has over 15 years of experience but his work does not show it):-The only 5-star review he's received is from his wife-He is oblivious to home values in this areaPlease do not make the same mistake our bank did by hiring this company! Do your research and hire an Appraisal Company with a good rating, not one that must use their wife to give them a good review!
Damian Trotter: "Skeptical" is what one should consider before using this appraisers' services. My home was appraised by this exact individual on both September 2020 and September 2021.Please see my concerns below:My home on September 2020 was appraised and valued at $247,000.The charge - cost was $500.00 in 2020.After replacingupdating: (Personally investing) from Sept 2020 - Sept 211.) Front door completely replaced (1-2021) with luxury ($10k) door.2.) Brand new HVAC (entire) unit installed March 2021 - ($20k)3.) Brand new instant hot water (April 2021) heating system installed (3k)4.) Brand new kitchen appliances added (May 2021) (6k)5.) New siding added to outside of home.5.) New outside brickstone flower bed around entire front of house.After above improvements and modifications, my home was againappraised by same individual at 'Park Place Appraisals' during month of September 2021... exactly 1 year later.It appraised for $249,000, only "2" thousand dollars more than same time last year!The cost of this appraisal was $620.00 in Sept 2021, a 20% increase in price over last years rate.Interesting to hear how this individual emphasizes extremely conservative appraisal values but have no problem considering or adding factors like inflation into their own costs and charges.So after all the improvements and modifications, my home value only increased 0.8% (with above improvements and 1 year inflation) while his charge for services increased 20%!Zillow has this house with an increase of $60k value in this 1 year time.Numbers on such sites are often inflated, but really? After all those improvements, two thousand dollars?Before you use... would you be concerned?
Wendy Cave: Do not use this company, specifically Nicholas R Schafer who seems to give himself 5 starts. A qualified appraiser should create a report based on a visual inspection, using recent sales of similar properties, current market trends, and aspects of the home, which did not happen in a recent residential appraisal, causing panic among the buyers as they would possibly be homeless. It is very apparent he used his own opinion regarding the price per sq ft this house should fall in, not taking into account and more importantly recent sales (i.e. the house next door and 2 other houses) and chose to go outside the neighborhood to support his price per sq ft appraisal. At the time of listing, the market trend in the neighborhood was $20 per sq ft higher than what Mr. Schafer used. Choosing to use older sales as well as houses that did not compare to the fully updated home (new roof, HVAC, windows, floors, counters, stools, sinks, gutters and pain) and chose to use homes that were not updated, those whose exterior paint was falling off and those bought by flippers. When both buyers and sellers agents provided him with ample documentation to support the listing price as well as the offer price, Mr. Schafer would not budge on his appraisal.
