In seeking a refi, my mortgage company hired NorCal appraisers. Some guy from Lake County came down and spent a half an hour looking around. He barely looked in the house where I was just finishing a very pricey remodel. He spent so little time on the house that my daughter had to clarify how many bedrooms and how many bathrooms. His appraisal came in $100,000 less than an appraisal. I had done four years ago before I spent over 200,000 on improvements, including generators and water tanks. His appraisal focused on an outbuilding that I had been planning to replace. Between his low ball appraisal and his focus on the negative, my entire refinance had fallen through. Additionally, he charged me $350 to come back to verify that the faucets and lights in the remodel had been finished. He was rude, very negative, and clearly is not an advocate for his customers. This appraisal is part of the public record and has hurt me financially, not to mention ruined my chances at refinancing my house. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.!!!! YOU WILL REGRET WASTING YOUR MONEY ON NORCAL APPRAISERS!!!! read more

Chris of Nor-Cal appraisers did a great job valuing my home for a re-fi. I'd recommend him to anyone. The one one-star review written FOUR years ago here on Yelp is *not* representative of the quality of work he does. He worked with me and my difficult schedule to coordinate an appointment after hours. Other appraisers I called were at least 2 - 3 weeks out and unwilling to work with my schedule. Not only did Chris schedule with me after hours, he had that report turned submitted within 24 hours!!! I don't know who's going to give you service like THAT! Good luck finding someone! Top notch in my book. read more

Our refinance company hired Norcal-Appraisers. On the plus side, they arrived on time, and the appraiser was polite. On the negative side, the final report had a number of factual mistakes about our home (lot size, HVAC system), as well as egregiously low estimates for the cost of construction in post-fire Santa Rosa. Most importantly, they ignored better comps closer to our house in favor of worse comps further from our house, which resulted in our house being appraised about 10% below what it should have. Fortunately, it didn't affect our refi, but it was pretty shoddy work. read more

Had my home in Petaluma appraised by Chris of Norcal-Appraisers in Windsor. Came in at a very low value and unable to refinance as a result. Real Estate comps in the area were much higher and surprised at the value. Think he might have taken the fast and easy route to appraisal instead of a detailed assessment. Based on how low mortgage rates are today, do you really want to gamble with an appraiser that could do to you, what he did to me? Suggest using anyone other than Norcal-Appraisers. read more

Absolutely love this vintage jeweler in Windsor. We made a couple of purchases. So happy with them!…read moreTruly beautiful craftsmanship. I picked up a gorgeous opal that fit perfectly and I knew it was meant for me, and a really nice silver chain for my son. Brenden and the entire crew are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. They are friendly, professional, and actually take the time to give you their full attention. You can tell they care about what they do. They also specialize in custom rings and use precision technology, which is really impressive if you are looking for something one of a kind. Honestly, it was hard to leave because there was so much beautiful jewelry to look at. Highly recommend stopping in if you appreciate vintage pieces and great service.

I'd…read morebeen to a few of those "we buy gold places" and they turned out to be liars and thieves - they tell you stuff like "that isn't 14 k gold, it's 9 k" and Simon proved them wrong! I trusted him completely and got a very fair price for my gold. Since then he opened this location and I've still very pleased. I've had pearls restrung. I took a friend there for a custom sterling silver pendant she wanted for a friend. I've had jewelry cleaned and prongs tightened. I'm about to go there to have a watch cleaned and a new strap put on. I trust Simon and his wonderful staff, in particular the charming brunette who works in front. Your jewelry and pocketbook are safe here.

I couldn't be happier and highly recommend Ellite Fine Jewelry to anyone looking for a special, one-of-a-kind piece and an exceptional customer experience.

Greg Darcy was very patient in helping me decide how to replace the broken part of that one ring and did a great job in re-sizing the other ring. He was also honest with me about the broken ring.

I highly recommend consulting with him for all of your jewelry needs!

I've had dealings with many, many jewelers, but my recent experience with Greg Darcy tops them all!…read moreI contacted him because I needed his help with a flawed wedding ring setting; three separate diamonds had fallen out in a 12-month period so I knew there was something wrong. He confirmed my suspicions and suggested an alternative setting. Here's the best part: I had brought in a bag of random loose diamonds with me that I had been accumulating over the last several years. In addition to the stones already in my original (flawed) wedding band, he was able to sell/trade all of these diamonds in order to provide me with TWO identical wedding bands! And, he did so at an unheard of low price! The rings are spectacular! If that wasn't enough, as a bonus he took a diamond necklace of mine that had been sitting in my jewelry box (unworn) for 2 decades and transformed it into a stunning set of diamond hoop earrings! He is amazing and loves to give new life to old and forgotten jewelry. You can be sure I'll be going through my jewelry box again to see what other magic he can perform! I'm so impressed with his professional but personal customer service. Greg is such a nice person and I 100% recommend him for all your jewelry needs!
