"Initially there was a misunderstanding regarding pricing, because of unclear wording in the Angie's List Deal I used for Blaylock Transport. The deal I purchased was for labor only; from the wording I thought it was a full service offer.
In spite of this, Tim was able to work with me to modify the deal in a way that worked out for both of us. He and his helper were friendly, punctual, and hustled their butts off to get the job done. They handled the delicate items with care, but still managed to move quickly.
If you hire Blaylock, it's best to communicate by phone. I sent a few emails via Angie's List that Tim says he never got; Tim says he sent me a few messages that I never received.

"Aaron responded immediately to my inquiry about an appraiser, we set a date and Aaron was both on time and very professional. He let me know when the appraisal would be ready and he produced a quality report with pictures, maps., and a detailed analysis. I would definitely recommend him to my friends."

"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

No, the appraisal value comes from an appraiser and is a professional opinion of value based on property location and condition, while the market value is determined solely by what buyers are willing to pay for your home. Lenders normally use appraised values to ensure they’re staying within target loan-to-value (LTV) ratios—the market value is simply what the home sells for. Appraised value can sit above or below market value.

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.

Appraisals typically take 2-3 hours on-site, with reports delivered in 2-5 business days.

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

Ideally, you’d never pay more than the appraised value for a home, but there are some instances where it makes sense to do so. For example, if your current living arrangements are no longer viable and you need a place to move into quickly, paying more than the appraised value might be in your best interest to secure a new home. Additionally, if you’re buying in a hot market, overpaying for the home might be necessary to overcome the competition.
