We've used So-Cal Quality Appraisals twice now for appraisals of my parents house. The first time…read morewe used him was to backdate the appraisal to the date of my mother's death. Steven took his time with both the home visit and with his research and was able to provide us with a solid appraisal. This was important to establish the value of the home in the case my father decided to sell his home as he now had a better baseline to reduce any capital gains tax. We recently used Steven again for an back dated appraisal to my father's death. Although Steven had a lot going on, he made the time to come out to do the appraisal while both myself and my sister were present. We received the second appraisal within a week and were very satisfied with the work he did. I highly recommend Steven for both his knowledge and service level. A+++++

My family has bought and sold many homes in the past few decades and it is not often that we find…read moresomeone who is as professional as Steve. Not just that he is knowledgeable of the Torrance area, he is also knowledgeable of the zoning, the changes in the neighborhood and is also aware of all the future changes in regulations. He is the best appraiser that we have ever had. Cannot be happier. Highly recommended!!!!

I've known Cindy for years and have hired or recommended her for multiple appraisals. Cindy is the…read moredouble whammy...she's both a very good appraiser AND a professional. That means, she shows up to appointments on time and completes her appraisals in the amount of time she said she would. Cindy is open to input, but also does through due diligence on each property she appraises. As a Realtor, we rarely get contact with the people that appraise our transactions, but whenever a need for an appraiser exists outside of transaction, Cindy is the first person I call. Also, whenever we have a property that we're either unsure of the value of or unsure in how to approach valuing it, Cindy is the person I call. If you need an appraiser, especially in the South Bay of LA, make sure you give Cindy a call.

An outstanding service! We contacted Cindy for a unique and complicated appraisal situation, and…read moreshe handled the issue with ease. She is extremely knowledgable, professional and thorough in her work as well as being very understanding of the concerns of her client. Despite the more problematic aspects of our request, she completed her work quickly and efficiently, saving us time and stress. We would highly recommend her and she would be our first choice if needing an appraiser in future.

My car was parked and a driver crashed into it and totaled it. The accident was 0% my fault…read more... you'd think my insurance ( Progressive ) would fight for me and make sure I was made whole.... nope. My own insurance undervalued my vehicle, they didn't care what I had to say, they didn't care what proof of value I had. Progressive sent me a list of comps that were not comps at all, it was a list of 2wd vehicle ( my car was 4wd ) they didn't care what I said or how I said it. I was frustrated, mentally exhausted and becoming overwhelmed by it all. On a Saturday evening I sent provalue a message, they responded quickly and asked me to send my files over to them and they would look at it on Monday morning, I did and Henry called me around noon on Monday and told me I was right, I deserved more, and he would get it for me. It sounded too good to be true, it wasn't. When it was all said and done, thanks to provalue I ended up with 4k more in my bank account, THIS IS AFTER PAYING PROVALUE'S FEES 4k more, its a huge improvement, it makes a difference. I should have contacted ProValue right away, I wasted weeks thinking Progressive would fight for me.....well Progressive didn't fight for me, Progressive didn't make it right, But PROVALUE DID FIGHT FOR ME Thank you to the ProValue team!

Very transparent and fair. They helped me win my case and made everything super easy.read more

The good: I was able to make an appointment with Paul within two weeks of calling. He showed up…read moreearly and got started right away. Unfortunately, he did not get my proposal to me on time. I had to request it a couple of times and finally received it over 3-weeks later. The bad: His appraisal came in really low. The house is in great shape, remodeled and received two comps from two separate Realtors that were shocked by his proposal. He was way off and I'd be a fool if I used his numbers. The house could have been cleaner at the time; but we were in the middle of packing. Still a trained eye should be able to overlook it; especially when he is supposed to look at sq footage, upgrades, the area and comparable sales. It felt like a stab in the dark with his number. I made the request that he re-evaluate and consider raising his appraisal to at least the mid-upper range from the eight market comparisons provided within the 3/4-mile radius. On two separate occasions he said he just got back in and would get back to me. He never did and I finally gave up on this guy. This appraisal was a waste of time and money and would go elsewhere for your appraisal needs.
