"I needed an appraisal to ensure I listed my house at the best price. Ms. Giles was professional and completed my appraisal in a timely manner. I was able to schedule, conduct and receive the results of my appraisal within the same week. The report is thorough and shows substantial evidence to support her analysis. I will recommend Candace Giles and Associates to my family and friends."
"Did what was requested in a timely manner. No hassles which is exactly what a person needs when dealing with the loss of a spouse. This was specific for an estate appraisal. Not an appraisal to buy real estate. This is for estate tax purposes which is different. Thank you."
"Ryan is an excellent agent! He was poised, honest and extremely helpful throughout both the buying and selling process. His depth of experience was an asset to us in nearly every decision-making situation that we faced. He also went above and beyond for us during an extremely challenging situation as our house went on the market the day of the COVID-19 shutdown. I don't think our experience could have gone any more smoothly."
"Cindy has been our family's real estate agent for four houses in the last 4 years. We will not use anyone else. Her detailed local knowledge of the area allows her to answer all of your questions. She is on time, organized, responsive and constructive. Cindy helps you refine the process by asking you thoughtful questions that clarify what's really important to you. She especially shines once you decide you want a particular property. We found her to be an invaluable resource when it came to pricing and finding options that create a win-win for everyone involved. Lastly, she's a smart, funny and a pleasure to be with. If you hire Cindy you will not be disappointed."
"Terrific service. Responded promptly. Very forthright, honest and down to earth. Did the appraisal, and produced a great and thorough report in just two days. I would hire them again for anything and everything I do in real estate. Can't recommend them highly enough."
"Chris is very knowledgeable and helpful. He did not complete an official appraisal but has been very helpful with the pricing and connecting me with an agent to help sell my house."

"RaSaun Murphy completed my home inspection. He provided a thorough inspection of my Condo. He provided a thorough report and I was able to fix issues that would have come about in the Buyer's inspection. He offered to come back and reinspect when the issues were fixed to provide and updated report. It wasn't necessary, my Condo sold with no Buyer's inspection, because they saw the first report. Kudo's to him. Thanks. "
