"I highly recommend Home Land for real estate appraisals. Their work, turnaround time, and rates are all excellent. "

"I recently worked with Dan on a real estate appraisal. After speaking with a few appraisers, I chose Dan because he took the time to thoroughly explain the process, including IRS-qualified appraisal criteria, which made me feel the most comfortable. I was very impressed with his professionalism and expertise. He was punctual, thorough, and delivered a comprehensive report quickly. I highly recommend Dan and would work with him again in the future."

"Erik was great. I called him on Friday and he came the next day. He took the time to explain things to me the day of his visit and even after we received our appraisal. He even had our appraisal ready within the week. Thank you Erik"

"They were on time, professional, clean, and caused minimal interruption for my family while doing the appraisal. Highly recommend."

"My husband I and used Mike M, Peter D, and the Guaranteed Rate team previously with our home purchase and refinance in Orange County, CA. They were great then and actually approached us with a way to refinance and save hundreds per month by doing so. We wouldn’t have known about the refinance opportunity otherwise. We knew we found a great team for all our mortgage needs from that point on. Mike, Peter, and his Guaranteed Rate were the natural choice when my husband and I decided to make a huge move from California to Florida. When we found the home we wanted to purchase, we called Guaranteed Rate. The local real estate agent strongly resisted us going with Guaranteed Rate and insisted we use a local lender she was familiar with. We told her no thanks; we have our team for life. By the end of the deal, the same real estate agent raved about how amazing Guaranteed Rate is and how wonderful they were to work with. This is especially true because 2 days before closing, Hurricane Michael hit closeby our new house. While we thankfully were not impacted, all mortgages had to be closely inspected in nearby counties. Guaranteed Rate made frequent calls to everyone involved in our real estate deal and quickly got us back on track to close in record time. Folks working with other lenders didn’t get so lucky and some are still being delayed. Thanks again to Mike, Peter, and the entire Guaranteed Rate team for making our home ownership dreams come true again!!"

"<strong>The good:</strong> <br /> Initial conversation went well; fair fees and competitive rates.  Broker was responsive and eager to proceed with the loan (called me a couple times even after I told him I'd get back in a few hours - hey eagerness is ok with me).  <br /> <strong>The Bad:</strong> <br /> After signing the commitment papers and paid for rate-lock/appraisal, getting a call back was non-existent (always says he's busy).  To be fair the broker was usually available when I called <br /> <strong>The Ugly:</strong> <br /> The biggest issues is that AFMC uses Springhouse Appraisals (an aggregator who makes money on the difference between what you pay and how low they can pay their appraisers).  Their business model depends on how low they can spend on subcontractor appraisers - so how much experience do you think their hires have?  My appraiser was SHADY.  Suppose to be Philly based (first question I asked my broker) but his business address is a 3rd floor apartment that was on the rental market.  His cell number is Jersey based and he missed a comp property on the next block but picked one up that's half mile away (too far in Philly).  Needless to say it was LOW!!  I don't mean a little under but laughing-on-the-floor low.  At that point to pull out of the deal means losing $1250 (rate lock & appraisal fee) so AFMC would not care.  My broker wasn't helpful even though I showed him the sold property on the next block.  (he said he'll talk to his boss but ended up not calling back).  <br /> <strong>Bottom Line:</strong> <br /> I made a mistake by not using my regular mortgage guy (he had too many projects and wanted me to wait).  My recommendation is to use someone else if you live in Philly and need a high appraisal.  I think Jersey would be ok with this company.  Otherwise they provide competitive rates and have lower than average fees with competent mortgage brokers on staff - when you can get a hold of them. <br />"

"There is honestly no one better than Eileen Appel! We recently embarked on the journey of finding our first house. We had been casually looking online for over a year, using the common websites and feeling so overwhelmed. Eileen stepped in and changed everything! She was able to find us a variety of houses in our target town and price range. And then she helped us through the mortgage process once we found "the one!" Here are our favorite things about Eileen: <br /> 1. Her experience is priceless. She knew when homes were priced appropriately, when to just walk away, and when to negotiate. <br /> 2. She was always available on weekends and in the evenings - to see houses, to answer questions, etc. <br /> 3. She would instantly text/call/email back - to us, and for us! We would text her a question - who do we ask about such and such? Her response a few minutes later would say, "I called _____ and here's your answer!" She really made things so much easier for us. <br /> 4. She has a team of qualified people - from our fantastic real estate lawyer Maureen Tynan, to the home inspection company, to the contractor that has done beautiful work in our new home. These people have made the process much easier to go through as well! <br /> 5. She is an honest, wonderful person. Developing a relationship with our realtor was important to my husband and to myself. Buying a house is a giant commitment and we wanted to trust the person helping us. We were so very lucky that Eileen is THAT person!! We loved learning from her and spending time with her! Our two-year-old son would ask to call Eileen because he loved talking to her, too! We cannot recommend Eileen Appel enough!  <br /> <br /> <br />"

"Called asking if they do appraisals, and they said no.  Cannot say anything bad about the company; maybe the are mis-classified in Angie's List."

"We had been been combatting lichen and moss on our roof and property for the last 20 years with no real luck. I noticed Roof Renew Pros doing work in our neighborhood and figured I would give them a try. Talking to them on the phone was easy and they understood right away what I needed done. They gave me the quote the next day and away we went. The team showed up on time and set our expectations for the day. We could not be happier, they communicated to us what they were going to do and we especially liked that no harsh chemicals were used. The roof came out great, I was worried it would get ruined but they did not do anything harsh. There was an inspection beforehand to let me know the roof was in good shape, except for the lichen and moss. And, lot's of pictures. They took care of the roof, the shed's roof, the back patio and the front walkway. Even the retaining walls we have, which was great. Everything is so new. And, they cleaned the gutters. So, very wonderful job done by Roof Renew Pros. I would definitely suggest them to friends and family."
