"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."

"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."

Customers say: Quick response

"I had the pleasure of working with Keith Shaplin, the owner of Majestic Appraisals, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, Keith demonstrated a level of professionalism and expertise that truly sets him apart. First and foremost, scheduling with Keith was a breeze. He was incredibly easy to reach and accommodated my schedule with ease, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. But beyond just being easy to schedule, Keith's friendly and personable demeanor immediately put me at ease. He took the time to understand my needs and ensured that I felt comfortable throughout the appraisal process. When it comes to professionalism, Keith is a consummate pro. His work is not only timely but also incredibly fast and efficient, delivering results in a timely manner. And let's talk about value â Keith's services are very reasonably priced, offering top-notch quality without breaking the bank. The appraisal reports provided by Keith were exceptionally well-written, clear, and comprehensive. I was impressed by the professional finished product, complete with clear, high-definition photos that provided valuable insights into the property in question. What truly sets Keith apart, though, is his dedication to customer service. Even after the appraisal was complete, he remained available for any questions or concerns I had, demonstrating a level of commitment that goes above and beyond. In summary, working with Keith Shaplin and Majestic Appraisals was a five-star experience in every sense of the word. If you're in need of an appraiser who is not only highly skilled but also friendly, efficient, and dedicated to customer satisfaction, look no further than Keith. Highly recommended!"

"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 Beline was my real estate agent when I purchased my condo, and I recently relied on Cindy again when I decided to upgrade from a condo to a house. Cindy showed me and my husband multiple homes and had valuable insights on "money pit" issues in some of the contenders. When we ultimately found our dream home through her MLS search tool, Cindy worked closely with us to develop our offer, which was complicated by the fact that it was contingent on the sale of my condo. Despite this drawback, the sellers accepted our offer after a few rounds of negotiation, on which Cindy advised. The whole process moved much more quickly than I had expected, and Cindy was critical in helping me to identify a handful of fixes/upgrades to my condo that made a difference when we put it on the market (in only three weeks!). The professional brochure that Cindy put together also helped a great deal. We received an all cash offer for asking price on the day of our first open house, which Cindy expertly conducted. Thereafter, Cindy was extremely helpful with the house inspection, addressing HICRA items (at both properties), and other issues. With her help, we achieved a simultaneous close of the sale of my condo and purchase of my new house in only two months from the day that we ratified the contingent contract on the house. A land speed record! I would definitely use Cindy again (although I hope to never move again!), and I would recommend her to anyone who wants a real go-getter real estate agent. She's the best!"

"Being new in town my first two attempts at hiring electricians were unsuccessful. I learned the hard way that straight 5 star reviews doesn t always mean quality sevice. This time I carefully read the customer reviews and experiences and as result hired as Jaswal Corporation. I m glad I did as scheduling was very easy. Brandon, the electrician, arrived right on schedule. He was polite and professional answering my many questions as he quickly and efficiently installed seven light fixtures and completed other electrical work throughout my home. Based on my experience I highly recommend Jaswal Corporation. I m thankful I found an efficient and trustworthy electrical contractor to service my home s electrical needs!"

"Brian and his team were really impressive. From start to finish, he put our minds at ease and made the process stress-free. He's an expert at his craft, and knew exactly how to price our home. The preparation, listing, showing, and sale were all seamless. We were lucky to have found Brian as our real estate agent, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best."

I am a wholesale mortgage broker who has the opportunity to work with many different real estate agents on many different transactions.  Because of that we have a pretty good view of the interactions between home buyers and their real estate agent.  I recently had the opportunity to work with BJ Matson who was the seller?s real estate agent for one of our clients.  From the first contact to the settlement table BJ consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism, utmost concern for the customer?s interest and a great sense of urgency that greatly contributed to a smooth and successful transaction.  The feedback from the customer confirmed everything that we were seeing.  It is my pleasure to offer my highest recommendation for BJ to anybody who is buying or selling a home in Maryland.

Real Estate Agents FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, wood floors are among the most desirable flooring options, and most homebuyers are willing to pay more for homes with high-quality wood floors installed. Wood floors are relatively easy to repair, maintain, and clean, and buyers may pay a premium for the convenience and natural beauty of wood floors, especially if they’re new or in good condition. You can reasonably expect a return on investment of around 75% or more when you upgrade to wood floors, depending on the quality and type of wood.

Just as a kitchen remodel can increase home value, so can a new kitchen island. A kitchen island provides extra counter space, increased eye candy, and improved functionality that will likely impress prospective home buyers. You can expect an ROI of about 60% to 80% of the cost of your kitchen island installation, though this depends on the overall design of the fixture. 

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.

A koi pond may add value to your home if it’s a feature sellers are looking for. Like pools, ponds can affect your property value depending on their condition, whether they’re a popular selling point, and how well they’re incorporated into your home’s landscape.

In short, yes, a pond can add to your home’s value. However, whether it adds value will depend on the condition and aesthetic of your pond. Having this feature already built into a yard’s home can be appealing to homebuyers who value its aesthetic and would prefer not to build it themselves. But if it is not kept in good condition, it could turn buyers away.
