Stephanie in the…read morelast week We were forced to use Susan as our appraiser per our lender. We were overcharged for the appraisal by $550, so it costed us $895 for a local appraiser to appraise what was supposed to be our first home, plus she didn't use the right comps and based the comps off of manufactured homes and not single family residence. The listing agent sent in a rebuttal on the final appraisal, and Susan the appraiser said that she used the right comps and would not change the value amount. Now my family and I are out of the home due to this wrongful determination. I have worked in real estate for over 20 years and have never seen such a bad appraiser.

Susan Kabler was drawn from a pool of appraisers from our buyers lender. When the appraisal come…read moreback, (7 days later) it was nearly 20,000 less than the comps in our area. We did a complete remodel of our home from bathroom to kitchen and appliances with upgrades in every room! The appraisal was so inaccurate even the bank she was appraising for questioned its validity and returned her appraisal to correct her major errors. She still refused to correct her appraisal using the appropriate comps in our area. We will be telling our network of realtors and lenders to not use Susan. Buying and selling a home is stressful enough and to have your home you have worked so hard on be valued at an unreasonable amount puts another burden on your side. I hope this review helps and no one else becomes a victim of Susan Kabler.

I contacted Amber to appraise my neighbor's home. After flaking on the first meeting, she showed…read moreup, looked around, and we paid her reasonable rate. She was friendly and seemed capable. She initially said the appraisal would take a few days, but it ended up taking almost a month and repeated contacts. Unfortunately, she accidentally appraised my property, instead of the address I had requested (in writing and in person). When I informed her of the error, she refused to either refund me or appraise the correct property. I ended up having to take her to small claims court to get a refund, where we won a judgment for the full amount plus expenses. She was extremely rude in court. I would avoid her at all costs.

Everything went great and came back in a timely manner. She went through the house thoroughly and…read morewas very professional.

If giving someone your money and having them talk down to you is your idea of a good time, then…read morethis is the lady for you. I cannot believe how she talks to me. I ask her a question (Which I'm paying her for) and she talks to me like a red-headed stepchild. Tells me to look things up myself and insists that she sends me things and to read it on my own. Thing is, she doesn't actually send the things she thinks she did. I go back through all my e-mails and there is NOTHING that she claims to have done. This happened numerous times. I'm livid on how she treats me and am sorry I ever used her in the first place. Even if she did do the things she claimed to do, there is no need for her to talk down to me. Maybe she's going through some stuff in her personal life right now, but there is no need for her condescending attitude. Also, all the time she spends talking smack, she could just cut and paste the info I'm asking for in way less time, but I guess that wouldn't make her feel so superior.

Lauralynn recently did appraisals on a number of items. We are extremely impressed with her…read moreprofessional attitude. She thoroughly researched each item, delving into the item's history, its current value, where it has been auctioned or sold, and where the artist's work is currently located. Layrlynn kept us apprised each step of the way as to what she was doing. Her communication was outstanding. She frequently checked in with us as to the progress she was making as well as the values that she was finding. We feel that Lauralynn and Art Mode are top quality and highly recommend the company to anyone seeking appraisals. Lauralynn is reliable and honest. We found communication with her to be easy. Lauralynn is friendly and professional. Her reports were detailed and thorough. The reports are easy to read and are perfect to share with an insurance company. Without hesitation, we will definitely hire Lauralynn in the future.
