I've heard rumors they closed, I really hope so. Total scam between lenders and appraisers . They lied directly and constantly.

Scam artists. They take $ and don't pay the appraisers. Fraud all the way. Where is the 0 star button? Scums!

Totally horrible company to work for as an appraiser. GET YOUR MONEY UP FRONT!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!! They will not pay and will ignore your attempts to get them to collect. We have turned them over to the BBB and collection agencies. read more

Got Appraisals have now closed their doors, leaving our company and many other companies and appraisers out of luck. As the State of California is one of the states which does not require AMC's to post bonds before being licensed, no one will receive their payments. Advice to all appraisers: legally, the bank is the client and they are responsible. From here on out, we will be contacting the lenders directly if the payment is so much as one day late. And yes, there are certain AMC's we refuse to do business with because they take 3 months to pay! read more

I have performed five appraisals for them and have not been paid for one. The appraisals date back to 10/2018. Per their contract they are to pay in 60 days. They have broken their contract. Called AP and they promise to pay or call bank. They do neither. Proceeding to bill the lenders direct as they are the client. Am filing a complaint with BREP and will fille a small claims action against their surety bond with the state. DO NOT USE AND DECLINE ALL ASSIGNMENTS. read more

If there was a ZERO star they would've got it! APPRAISERS BEWARE! They have over $3000 worth of outstanding invoices and refuse to pay. Absolutely the worse AMC I've worked with. read more

Where is zero star button!!! Horrible service and a horrible job doing your only job!! If you happen to stumble across all these bad reviews please do yourself a favor and call your loan officer, broker, or realtor immediately and ask them to switch companies. You won't regret it. They should've named it gotcha appraisals. read more

I am a real estate appraiser and this company owes me $6,000 since the beginning of the year. The business manager Nicole Stefani is in charge of the payments, i have emailed, mailed and left multiple voice messages and she will not return any of my voice, email or mail. This company is a flat out ripoff and I recommend to any appraisal company never to work with the company. In addition, the owner Jody Reid lives a lavish lifestyle on my hard work and he flat out wont respond. The worse appraisal management company ever and I work for many AMC's. Greg read more

Still waiting for payment for an order over six months old. Sending official documentation today to start legal remedies.

My lender used this company to order appraisal and the guy was not able to pick up that the property which was falsely advertised by seller as Duplex was in county records single family residence. Very poor service can not trust any appraisal done by them. read more

I am another appraiser that has been burned by Got Appraisals on unpaid appraisal fees. I have been an appraiser for over 20 years, have worked with countless AMC's, and I am not aware of another crook in the business. I just cant believe they haven't had their license pulled. Worst of the worst. read more

BEWARE APPRAISERS! Don't work for them. We've been promised payment for months. They will use everything stupid "trick" in the book-- check is in the mail, I told you the wrong date of payment, lost in the mail... Now they have stopped communication. Complaints made to the state and to the lender. We did a couple for them and they were slow pay, now they are no pay. read more

Dont like this appraisal company -- they didnt add a latest sold property to comp properly... The house pics of nearby sold homes are available on trulia/zillow and we had a 100K upgrade...Yet, they only chose to give a 10K additional valuation for that... They said that sqft of house didnt matter in valuation at all and hence compared different sq ft houses with no additional valuation... Overall, i didnt find the report convincing or suggestive enough... working with another appraisal company might be better if possible as per me... read more

Zero Stars. They don't pay appraisers. What a sin that an appraiser runs the company.

I'm a consumer and the appraiser was so professional, and very knowledgable of the area and comparables. Our appraisal report delivered on time. Highly recommend! read more

It is unacceptable to delay appraisal fees. My understanding is the appraisal management companies (AMC) receive payments for appraisals up front for appraisal orders, yet some AMC's they take 30+ days to pay appraisers. The completion date for one of the properties I appraised was 11/29/16 and the second order was 12/23/16, after a ten email thread spanning several months, I finally received the check for payment in May 2017. Yes, it took over five months to get paid. Not good, not good at all. If you work for this company make sure you get paid before completing the appraisal report, or you may have to take a lot of time out of your day attempting to track down a check. read more

Terrible appraisal and zero response when I pointed out errors. Guy they sent over was a jerk as well. Would recommend any needing an appraisal insist the lender use someone else read more

They charged me twice for an appraisal in December and will not return my calls or refund the double amount that they charged me. Seems to be a very shady company. As of today, March 8th I still have not received my money. read more

Active appraiser with over thirty years experience. I must admit I have had slow paying customer in the past, eventually always getting paid. Got Appraisals / AHR Appraisal or what ever other name they are going by this week has proven to be the most disrespectful company I have ever worked with. Currently trying to get paid on seven months old invoices. I dont believe they have ever paid a invoice without me calling, emailing, refusing additional work. If by chance you are lucky enough to actually get a response the excuses they offer are limitless, unique, and completely disrespectful in a professional environment. I have always provide quality appraisals in a timely manner, at a fair fee. All, I expect is to be paid in a timely manner. Appraisers are aware they collect the fees from the homeowner before we receive the appraisal assignment to begin with. What are they doing with our hard earned money for months ? A appraisal management company without state licensed appraisers is what ? A management company without their own state license to operate is what? Urging appraisers to not accept work from this disrespectful company. Urging the state of California to pull their license to operate as a appraisal management company. No respect. read more

I m a realtor. This company was used by a lender and they wrote a faulty report. There was report done by an independent appraiser who was FHA licensed. Did a solid rebuttal and they ignored. Got a copy of the appraisal done by these people through the lender and it was badly written and full of errors. The sellers appraiser took it apart in minutes. If you are buying a house and this company is being sent to your home CANCEL. You will not get an accurate appraisal. These people are BAD news. Zero stars. read more

This company is a whole piece of crap if I can rate a half star or even no star I will definitely use it. They don't know what they're doing they appraise the house 10% below the market value, are u kidding me? They don't even bother ask what upgrade I did on my house. Not unless u told them and even so they don't care! Never ever do business with them again! read more

I've completed 3 appraisals for this company and have not been paid on any of them. Two invoices are more than 9 months old and the third is going on 3 months. I've left countless emails and voicemails. I managed to speak to 1 human, Nicole Steffani. She promised me I'd get paid right away. That was 3 weeks ago. Ugh! Beware. read more

Im an Appraisal from South Florida, and I got the same issues as other appraisals I had done 2 appraisal for then which are over 90 and 65 days and payment still pending. Every time I call they say the payment is processing and that they mail the check, however is been like that for over a month. Those people are playing ball with the appraiser and I will report then to my state which is Florida. Do not work with this company they ignoring your call and lie to you. Also I don't see the reason they pay us (the appraiser) within 90 days or more when the get pay right when appraisal is other by the bank. 07/22/2017 read more

They collect for the appraisal from the client when the order is placed. They state they pay the appraiser 60 days from submission. They do not! They do not answer the phone, they do not reply to voice or email messages. Appraisers beware... I am filing a complaint against this AMC today. read more

ALWAYS have to call them to get paid. Their pay cycle I guess is semi annual since they have never paid within the 60 days allowed by DORA, and have to call them several times to finally get paid. read more

I contacted my mortgage broker Edge Financial and contracted to refinance 3 properties through them. They use "Got Appraisals" for their property valuations. The 1st one went alright and cost me $600. The 2nd one came in 10% low according to my Realtor and cost me $600 for nothing. The 3rd time I didn't get any written appraisal and they still bumped my credit card for $150. I will go out of my way in the future to avoid this company and recommend the same for you. read more

Extremely slow payers. I will be contacting State of Wyoming tomorrow 09/06/2017 to file a formal complaint regarding their lack of payment. Recommend all Appraisers think twice about accepting work from Got Appraisals. I will also be contacting the Lender of record regarding the outstanding payments.

I have hired Got Appraisals several times. I don't always get the value results I am hoping for, but that has nothing to do with them. Keep in mind that the appraisers who work for Got Appraisals also work for just about every other appraisal management company out there. The appraisers carry their own licenses and are independent contractors. As far as price, service and value I do not think you can find a better outfit than these guys. I recommend them without hesitation. read more

They owe my husband and I money for appraisals we did for them in July 2017, it is now January 2018. APPRAISERS BEWARE THEY DON'T PAY THEIR BILLS. We are reporting them to the BBB and OREA, hopefully we can get their AMC license revoked. One of the appraisals was an FHA appraisal so we're hoping to contact someone in FHA regarding them and their fraud, yes, fraud. You have to report what you paid the appraiser when you do an FHA appraisal and they didn't pay us. read more

They do not pay appraisers. We are owed close to $2,000 for appraisals that were performed well over six months ago, the loans have funded and closed and yet we have not yet been paid. They state they pay appraisers in 60 days, they do not. We have left over 2 dozen messages with no response. The one time we were able to speak to Nicole, who appears to be the accounting person, we were promised payment within the week. It's 3 months later and still no payment. An online research of their company indicates that this is standard practice for GOT Appraisals. Withholding payment from its contracted appraisers is a clear violation of their AMC license with BREA. DO NOT do business with them, incredibly unethical read more

HORRIBLE appraisal company!! Stay away!!! We ordered an appraisal 3 weeks ago and still do NOT have it! Instead of sending us the appraisal, we are being hounded for more and more "missing" paperwork that isn't missing and that was given to this appraisal company at the time of the order - 3 weeks ago. We are close to missing our close of escrow date because of their incompetence / laziness. I wish I could give negative stars - seriously - stay away from this company if you want to close your loan on time - HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE!!! read more

I am a Certified Real Estate Appraiser in Bakersfield California since 1985 and have completed many appraisals for this company. However, do not work for this company if you plan on getting paid. I have called this company literally over 100 times for many outstanding invoices owed that are over 1 year old. I either get the run around or it goes straight to voicemails and they never return the call. See you in court! read more

While going through yet another refinance (3.5% :)), my lender used this appraiser for my property. The appraisal contained errors and was heavily negatively skewed. It was an appraisal to please the banks. The appraiser devalued my home by $300K when comparing properties that were no more than 600 sq ft larger than my own of comparable quality and amenities. I own a pristine $1M+ home that is 11 years old. The appraiser cited that my custom built home needed to be updated. It was the most ridulous appraisal I've ever had, and I've refinance 5 times over the last 10 years. If you're looking for a fair appraisal of your property, keep looking and don't stop here. Tell your lender to look elsewhere for an appraisal! read more

I am an appraiser and received a request for an appraisal. (out of the blue). They agreed to pay me within 30 days. It's been 45 days and I am still waiting..they can't be trusted. I have since been informed of others in my state and even an appraiser in another state with the same stories. When an AMC doesn't/can't pay on time, it usually means they are failing. They also violate WA State Law that requires AMC's pay within 45 days. I have turned them into our dept of licensing. read more

I'm an an appraiser that has not been paid. These people should not be in business. Contacting my lawyer and the appraisal boards today.

AGREED!! BEWARE APPRAISERS!! Don't work for them!! If I could give negative stars, I would. I've been promised payment for months. They owe me for 18 appraisals!! My fault for letting it go so far, but now, no response whatsoever. Worst company for appraisers. AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE THAT THEY ARE!! Reporting them to state, state attorney general, BBB, and the lenders!! read more

Only concerned about the fees! This AMC is the worse one I have dealt with in 21 years of banking. They do not hold the appraisers to any timelines, always want to gain another fee for re-inspection, and the customer service is desired to say the least. The supervisor ( Kaycie) who is supposed to be the liaison to assist pretty much put the nail in the coffin that our company will never use them or any lender tied to them again. Helping the consumer and lenders is their LAST priority, gaining their FEES are. Jeff T read more

Can we give less then a star??? Completed a appraisal report in Feb 2018 - still do not have payment July/2018. I have emailed, fax'd and called. Calling useless since no body ever answers the phone in accounting! I am at my wits end. I am going to contact the lender directly for payment for this out standing bill, at this point. read more

Appraisers beware. This company does not pay their invoices. I have about $1700 owed to me from January and February of this year and I haven't been paid. It is now June. If I could give this company 0 stars I would. read more

I've never written a review before. My experience with GOT was not very good. I completed an appraisal and then a 1004D. The appraisal was completed at the end of January and the 1004D was completed approximately 2/3/20. I was paid for both appraisal assignments on 04/23/20. So... I won't be taking any orders from GOT Appraisals in the future. My personal experience and review for this company, is that they are very slow in paying, and it is very frustrating trying to collect from them. I did agree to their 60 day repayment guideline, however, 60 days came and went without being paid. Therefore, I can't recommend GOT to anyone wishing to make a living doing appraisals. Maybe, someone else has had a better experience than me, but I've twice accepted an assignment from them and each time I waited too long to be paid. My personal opinion, I would prefer to turn down an assignment from GOT. It is not worth the frustration. read more
