I learned of Michael Johnson through Home Advisor; his service has a high rating on that home service platform. He responded quickly, scheduled the appraisal for two days after our conversation, showed up and performed the appraisal at the scheduled time and provided a thorough written appraisal before the week was out. Reliable, professional, prompt and thorough. Communicated well and promptly.

Mr Johnson was very efficient and professional. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for an appraisal. He contacted me the same day I inquired about services and scheduled me an appointment for two days later. He got my appraisal back to me when he said he would, and didn’t prolong the process. This is a great company to work with.

I highly recommend Mike! I sent a message through Angi, and literally within a few minutes, Mike responded to my message and called me as well. He quickly and efficiently worked with me to schedule a home appraisal that I wanted to use as part of my Cook County property tax appeal. He arrived on time as promised on the date even though we had our first snow of the season, and could not have been nicer. Mike delivered my appraisal ahead of the date we agreed on. His appraisal was thorough and the appraised value of our home is in line with current market values, and what we expected. If you need a home appraised, you definitely should contact Mike!

The square footage in our appraisal was significantly incorrect, and when I pointed it out, backed it up with evidence. the only change made was swapping out one comp ? with no explanation for how nearly 400 sq ft of over-reported space would not reduce the value. I explained he could come remeasure and that was ignored. I even provided better comps at the appraiser?s request, but those were ignored as well. My final email addressing the valuation issues was never acknowledged. It has now been nearly a week with no response. This cost me time and money, and then we had to hire a second appraiser to correct the mistakes. Truly a frustrating and unprofessional experience to work with this appraiser.

Michael was great to work with, prompt and helpful with information and responses, and completed our home appraisal in the estimated timeframe - I would recommend Michael to anyone needing an accurate, timely home appraisal.

I was very pleased with Mr. Johnson's work. Mr. Johnson was punctual on the day of the appraisal. He came to my home and thoroughly inspected my property. He was very professional yet approachable. He answered all of my questions clearly. I would highly recommend this appraiser.

Mr Johnson not only was prompt, efficient and professional, he explained to us the entire process and even found mistakes in what the township had done. I was able to successfully appeal a portion of my tax increase using his results.
