"Our house remodeling required three separate visits from Blaylock Movers. On this third time, Tim and his son-in-law arrived on time, as usual. They proceeded to move the boxes and furniture with care as to not damage the newly installed carpet and newly painted walls. Care was also taken to shield one piece of furniture from the rain as it was transported. It was first class. If I had more moving to do, I would not hesitate to contact Blaylock Movers again."

"After researching online about Safe and Sound Security and Monitronics made an appointment with Brian Jaime to meet at 6pm. Brain was on time for the appointment and very professional. Brian was polite, respectful, not pushy, transparent, and explained the packages and what is best suited for our home. He was a good listener too which something you may not see in some of the business developers. I know instead of calling Brian a sales person I called him a Business developer this is because a sales man or woman is only interested in selling his product for a certain price and bad mouths other competition. When I mentioned to Brian that I have been talking to other outfits, he explained the difference in service and methods of business operation between them and the others. His first point was all about quality. Safe and Sound located out of Walnut Creek has been the #1 dealer in quality aspect for the last 5 years. This impressed the heck out of me as myself  working in a big Corporation where we internally compete every year to bag the top spot in quality and I will tell you that is not easy. Therefore with him defining what he and his team brings and the value of it from others definitely made him get my contract.



I signed into their standard 3 year contract for a reasonable price for the package I got. I am writing this review at this time and giving Safe and Sound Security 5 stars for their professional approach towards developing their business, transparency, quality, genuine interest towards their customers.  



They are a local outfit and the way this outfit works is, the contract, equipment installation, maintenance, and any trouble shoot calls will be handled by Safe and Sound Security team in house. you call their local customer support number during normal business hours of Mon - Sat 8 am to 9 pm and on other hours the call is answered by Monitronics and a ticket is issued and forwarded to Safe and Sound for action. you can call and if you are local you can walk into their office to request service. Being local is a plus for me. Monitronics renders 24/7 monitoring support. However, your contract is with Safe and Sound security.



Safe and Sound have been around for 8 years and to bag 5 years of #1 spot in quality service is great achievement and I expect that same service moving forward :) So far my experience has been great, have scheduled installation with tech today. will update my review with the installation experience and my future experience with this team

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

The average cost for a home or property appraisal is about $355, with prices typically ranging from $250 to $500. The final cost is influenced by several factors, including the property's size, age, location, and how it compares to other homes in the area. Appraisals for larger, older, or non-conforming properties often cost more. While a single-family home appraisal usually costs between $300 and $400, appraising a multi-family home can range from $500 to $1,000 due to its increased size and complexity.

An addition like a garage can increase your home value significantly, but it’s also quite expensive to convert a carport into a garage. In some cases, you may see just a small boost to home value. With that being said, a carport conversion can add value to your experience as a homeowner long before you sell. Garages are useful for security reasons and storing vehicles, plus they can serve as a convenient place for storage and as workspaces or even living spaces.

A home inspection and a home appraisal serve different purposes. A home inspection is a visual evaluation of the property's overall condition to identify any structural problems or issues with major systems like electrical and plumbing. Its main goal is to assess the home's long-term safety and determine if repairs are needed before a sale. In contrast, a home appraisal is a thorough evaluation of the property and its surrounding area to determine its current fair market value. This value helps set the asking price and guides the mortgage company’s lending decision. The average cost for both a home inspection and a home appraisal is around $350 each.

Historically, Tudor homes originally stemmed from the 15th and 16th centuries, while Victorians appeared during Queen Victoria's reign in the 19th century. The design and structural differences are significant as well. The many types of Victorian architecture—such as Italianate architecture—typically feature ornate trim, wood siding, wraparound porches, and tall towers on top, such as belvederes. On the other hand, Tudor-style homes feature white stucco exteriors with exposed wooden rafters marking the house frame both inside and out.

It can, especially with the rising popularity of treehouses that go beyond the ones designed for kids. Adults can now use them as office spaces, yoga studios, or quiet treetop retreats. That said, a treehouse can appeal to families with children or adults who might want to convert it into a space of their own. Depending on the buyer, they may be willing to pay extra for the unique feature.
