I recently had my home appraised with this company. I had done many permanent upgrades in my home…read moreand yard, such as 2 large covered patios with colored, stamped and sealed concrete; granite kitchen and island with full backsplash; fully landscaped front, back and side yard using 4-6 inch river rock and desert hardy plants and trees; attic with pulldown ladder for extra storage; stainless steel appliances; 18 inch porcelain tile and baseboards installed on the diagonal and slate throughout 80% of the home; Custom patented stain glass window; AC and heating replaced with superior Maytag 12 seer with 10/20 warranty; Andersen Permashield sliding glass doors; new 10 year smoke alarms with 10 year batteries; custom closets in the bedrooms, and much more! It was described as being well maintained with a ONLY a mention of granite!! The pictures they took did NOT in any way do the home and yard justice! A picture of an old smaller hot water heater with cloth straps and stickers all over it, which was NOT MINE ,was included in the appraisal! Mine was a top of the line Bradford White 50 gallon only a 18 months old with metal straps. I was disgusted and contacted them about all this and requested another appraisal which was denied. Two patios were not mentioned nor were they drawn in with a dotted line on the groundplan. The lender would not have been favorably impressed.... Every realtor that saw my home believed the appraisal would come in higher than the listed price! Two homes smaller than mine, with smaller yards on the same street and same block with nowhere near the upgrades as mine sold the day after mine for just $,6,000 less. Another smaller home with a half patio, again with far less done to it, sold a few doors away for $13,000 MORE just 4 days after my appraisal. MY ADVICE: Avoid this company like the plague, and find out who the borrower's lender is if you are selling , because the lender chooses the appraisal company! Think about that for a minute...

I don't have children to pass them on to. I'm sure many people experience similar feelings when inheriting pieces. Neil and his team were straightforward and explained everything clearly. Their machine validated the gold content without any damage to any of my pieces. I can now take the proceeds to purchase a piece I would like that will give me joy, and not sadness, bc it belonged to someone who has passed on. 5/5 recommend.

JUST DROPPING MY GOOGLE REVIEW OF THIS PLACE HERE AS WELL BECAUSE ALL I GOT THERE WAS EXCUSES AFTER…read moreANOTHER SO PSA! I brought a lot of gold and silver pieces to this place, thinking that I would get good pricing for what I was bringing to them, but no! Less than what the scrap gold was worth at this time and I didn't get credit for the many gems inside the gold like diamonds and emeralds and sapphires, etc. etc. They turned away the plated silver but now I learned that they actually buy that, but they just told me that I just needed to have them trash it. They did, but they probably capitalized on that as well! When it came to the silver, I got less than market value at the time. Only because the buyers, will tell you that it's because "they don't have access to their actual profit for 30 days. These guys are such "shyster's." Stay away if you know you want what your metals are worth! JUST GONNA DROP OWNER RESPONSE HERE SO I CAN COMMENT ON IT. THIS HERE: Brenda Porter let me tell you the truth like I told you when you came into the store everything I buy I have to hold for 30 days. It has to go through the police department to make sure it's not stolen. This is called a state law. Maybe you break the law, but we don't we buy things based on the resale value unfortunately as I told you when gold is almost at $5000 a lot of items are not as resealable as they once were how is that being decisive? How is that being rude? I simply told you the truth we have to buy things for less than the scrap goal value I agree what did I do? That's so wrong that you leave me a one star review very disrespectful on your end, especially from a local MY RESPONSE: You have no idea what you're talking about Neil. I infused this review with a response that you made to me last night about the 30 day thing. But, I actually traded this stuff into you more than 4 months ago, so go ahead and backpedal on that and make it sound like you're not a bunch of shysters! Let me make this clear as well, I did not call you before that visit that I brought those sale items/precious metals etc in on the trade day!! So go ahead, defend that as well. You are literally making my point and only making you Look more like the liar that I contend that you are! If you want to try and defend something, unsuccessfully, tell me why you didn't give me credit for all the diamonds and gems that were in the jewelry pieces that I asked your buyer about at the time?? Said he would get back to it, but he didn't. You work so tirelessly at defending your company and your practice that you lose time and dimension! @ Joe's response, you also do not know what you speak about. It's reflected in your response! Actual one carat, and 2 carat, plus stones... As for the rest of it

Both jewelers have always been fantastic with communication, while attentive and friendly, they also are great at providing comprehensive appraisals and documentation to verify the piece that I am purchasing. Additionally, they have been upfront and helpful with sourcing pieces, but also with sizing and fixes. I have always felt I was treated fairly, both with the prices and impeccable professionalism. I highly recommend HGL if you're looking for rare and one-of-a-kind, but also if you need something new, or even just reputable appraisals on jewelry you currently own.
