Ed Geist PC DBA-Geist Appraisal Services

Appraisal Real Estate Service,

About us

Geist Appraisal SErvices is a locally owned and operated real estate appraisal company that has been in business for over 20 years. Our area of emphasis is single family homes, condos, townhouses and 2-4 unit income properties located in the tri-county area of Portland Oregon. We have appraised newly built homes, existing structures, homes with additions being added, or remodeling projects taking place. But in all cases, the purpose of the appraisal is to determine the market value of the property. Since lenders typically determine their own appraisers I would be the most help for estates, divorces, determining a market value before putting a home on the market for sale. In divorces and estates, we may end up providing a current value and a 2nd value that is from the past.

Ed came on Thursday the 26th, was professional, gave me a handwritten receipt for the cash he wanted to do the job. He said he would have the report to me on Monday-Tuesday of the following week (30th or the 1st). I called on Wednesday the 2nd, he said he would have it by the afternoon. I reminded him I needed it on the 9th for an appointment with the attorney. He said no problem. He did not call or send it. I have called 5 times and he either promises in one hour or by end of day. It is now the 9th and I feel he has ghosted me. It is the 9th and he won't respond to phone, text or email and today is the appointment with attorney. He should att have the courtesy to tell me. Angie, I would think twice about referring him if this is the service he provides. I am out $300 unless I can find him and now will have to meet with attorney another time. Not a good way to do business.

Very poor job, missed a lot of obvious things, and did a haphazard job.

He was prompt and professional. The standard appraisal form does not include any means to value ease of access and view. In a retirement community theses are both important purchase considerations. Not his fault but will surely impact value as perceived by candidate buyers.
