Advanced Appraisal Services (Charles Collums) is an unbelievably incompetent appraiser. It is very…read moreunfortunate that my mortgage lender chose Mr. Collums to perform the appraisal on a primary residence I purchased in May 2021 in the Sarasota area. This time period was during the real estate boom across the United States, and especially in Florida. Most houses were selling in one day or less and prices were increasing over 20% per year. Mr. Collums appraisal incorrectly stated that the real estate market in the Sarasota area had been flat the past 12 months and that average time on market was 60 to 150 days. Really? Where has he been? Every home that I looked at sold in 1 day for well above asking price. Mr. Collums appraised my house at 10% less than the contract price. It was pointed out to him that he used old comps that weren't valid, but he refused to change his appraisal despite being given relevant comps. I can't believe I had to pay money for such incompetence.

My review of Julie McClure Estate Sales is as a customer attending one of her company's estate…read moreliquidation sales. It was well organized, items were clearly marked and the advertising and directions for potential buyers to attend were detailed and accurate. I have recently met with Julie McClure to discuss having all of my household items sold as I intend to move to Spain. She is thoughtful and she clearly shared the process and the timeline needed to ensure it would be a successful sale. So I will post another review in the near future (once the estate sale occurs) but in the meantime I think her company is an excellent option for many who are moving to senior centers, downsizing and for family members left to handle the estate sales of a loved family member who has passed.

I would recommend you avoid her sales and here is why. During this Covid pandemic we all have worries. Julie has decided to schedule people in or by appointment in groups of ten. I called and tried to get on the list when the sale first dropped but it was too soon. As a dealer The first rule is first come first serve .knowing I had an appt I showed up extra early to get the one Personal item I have been needing. I was met by Julies very unpleasant staff who shot me a dirty look before I could even say good morning. Another of her associates came outside and rudely told me to wait in my car for my appointment. I was only trying to ask a simple question. If you are looking for a nick nac or two and don't mind dealing with some rude and short tempered women this is the sale for you. DEALERS BEWARE!!!
