"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."

I am a locally owned and operated residential real estate appraisal service, licensed in the state of Maryland. With over 20 years of industry experience, I value honesty and integrity, and stand behind our work. I look forward to building long-term relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction! I do charge a 75-dollar trip fee to come perform the appraisal. Should you move forward, that 75-dollar trip fee is waived.

"Mary was fantastic, we originally met her when we went to look at another home. We were in the process of packing and preparing to put our current home on the market. Mary was so friendly that we immediately felt comfortable with her, and offered her our listing. Our home is in an area that is not the easiest to sell a home in and homes in the area are on the market for an average of 94 days. Mary offered two open houses, staged our home and gave great suggestions to get the most traffic we could and after 81 days on the market we had an offer! We are so grateful for her hard work to get our home sold as quickly as she did, we would definitely recommend her first anyone looking for a nice, caring and dedicated Real Estate Agent!"

"David was patient, professional and extremely knowledgeable in the home buying process.  Given my circumstances I was searching for a home in a very narrow area in Columbia.  He provided helpful insights on various issues with prospective homes.  He also provided references to other quality services for financing and real estate inspection services as well as help in interpreting the results.  Eventually, we found an estate and short sale home and he worked with the seller?s agent and foreclosure attorney to drive the sale.  He warned me that the process could take longer than a standard home sale.  Unfortunately, the process did end up taking a year through no fault of David?s, and he continued to coach me through the process and prompt the seller?s agent and attorney for responses.  He even continued to set up appointments to view other homes in the area as the short sale dragged on.  As the sale closed Dave generously offered to pay for a home warranty service for a year.  Shortly before the coverage year ended, my dryer began to fail and I went to access the service only to find that the fee had never been paid by the title service.  Dave followed through on his word and he covered the cost of the dryer in full.  Given David's professionalism and responsiveness I fully recommend David to those looking to buy a home.

"See above.  Other than being misled by the offer, ie-not realizing that the reason for the appraisal was to obtain a mortgage only, I have no way to rate this service.  Please note, we did not use this service and have nothing negative or positive to say about this company.  Angie's List ought to have an Overall Rating for NA, like they do for the specifics.

"There was a miscommunication on the part of my loan office. I needed to pay for an additional apparisal report. Mr. Cushner was a top rate apparaiser. However, I can't use his report with my loan company."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

It’s often a good idea to take care of any health and safety repairs before an appraisal to make sure the mortgage can move to underwriting without having to pay for another appraisal. Replace any broken glass, fix uneven or sloping floors, ensure all steps have appropriate handrails, and have a professional get rid of mold, asbestos, and lead paint. Beyond these repairs, you can update appliances or fixtures and focus on aesthetic improvements like new paint to add the most value before scheduling an appraisal.

Termite damage isn’t always a deal breaker when buying a house, but don’t dismiss it. If that’s the case, you should hire a professional termite inspection to understand the extent of the damage, type of termite, state of repairs, and whether the infestation is gone.

If the termites are gone and the current owners repaired the damage, you might want to proceed. You may even be able to use the damage as a bargaining point. However, don’t forget that home insurance policies often don’t cover termite treatment or repairs and active infestations are tricky to shift.

Having a garage can increase the value of your home considerably, even if the garage isn't considered living space. Many people own cars and want a secure place to park their vehicles when they are home. 

If you decide to finish your garage and convert it into living space, you may affect your home's value. The livable space may increase your home's square footage, which can help its value. But, giving up the garage space may also negatively affect the sale price of your home.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.

In most cases, installing skylights will add value to your home, making them a worthwhile investment for many homeowners. Buyers are often attracted to the aesthetic appeal of skylights, as they make rooms feel brighter, airier, and more spacious by introducing natural light without compromising privacy. Beyond aesthetics, skylights can offer monetary benefits by potentially reducing energy bills. Additionally, models that can be opened provide extra ventilation, which is particularly useful in hotter climates for allowing accumulated hot air to escape from the ceiling. However, the return on investment depends on several factors. To maximize value, it's crucial that the skylights are installed by an experienced professional to avoid risks like water damage, which can deter savvy buyers. Regular maintenance and cleaning are also important. Furthermore, choosing the right frame and glazing materials for your specific climate will enhance their performance and appeal. While skylights are generally seen as an asset, homeowners should also consider the initial cost, which averages around $1,500 for installation.
