I had the pleasure of working with Jacob at Greater Bay Appraisals as an out-of-town client, and he…read moretruly exceeded my expectations. I needed a FMV date of death appraisal. When you're not local, you really need someone you can trust, someone skilled, responsive, and grounded in the realities of the market. Its can be a very hard time when dealing with the loss of a loved one and their property. Jacob handled this with sensitivity, respect and care. He delivered the appraisal faster than I expected, and the work itself was thorough and precise and was able to bring great insight and steadiness to complete this. It really stood out most was how thoughtful he is. He's clearly highly experienced and understands not just the mechanics of appraising, but the nuances of the local market and how to communicate what matters to a client. He took the time to explain what I needed, why it mattered, and what to expect without overcomplicating anything. His pricing is fair, his process is efficient, and he operates with a level of professionalism that's refreshing. If more people in business approached their work the way Jacob does, things would run a lot more smoothly. I'm appreciative and grateful to have found him by the help of reading the reviews of others. He's truly a great professional to work with and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services. Thank you so much Jacob.

Mathew was super easy to work with. He answered every phone call on the first ring. He was…read moreorganized and ready to work with me. I didn't feel like he was distracted by other clients. Mathew is a fair man. He was very straight forward with what he was offering, how long it would take. He earned my trust from the first consultation! I feel his prices were spot on. Although he charged the same as another company, Mathew charged 10% less than the one other company and 3% less than the third company I talked to. I chose to work with Mathew both because he was very knowledgeable about this County, plus Mathew was always available. Divorce is difficult. Mathew made me feel like I am back in control over this challenging time of my life. Clean, easy-to-access office with free parking. Accessible office. Clean and tidy word space.

I had a great experience with Rotem. I needed to have several lab gemstones evaluated to ensure…read morethat they were clean and clear without inclusions (as was advertised when I purchased them). We had a situation where one was not that way, and it was returned, but it mad me question my other items. I called Rotem Saturday morning and was able to get ahold of him directly. He provided me with two different quotes one for if I needed a verbal confirmation after evaluation or a second option- if I needed formal paperwork for insurance purposes. I needed the former, and later scheduled an appointment for the same day. Getting there was fine-- I was a bit confused in that it appaered to be a Ballet Studio but Rotem called me back and said he had a back office in that suite, so we waited in the lounge until his prior appointment was completed. Upon meeting Rotem, he was very friendly, has a nice style and was rocking some pretty awesome custom jewlery-- all of this immediately put me at ease. He invited my husband and I back to the suite and immediately started to review our products. He provided me with quick and easy confirmation that each item was authenticly the gem I understood it to be, and that they had zero inclusions. He also picked up a small ding that I myself had made to one- that was invisible to the tye, but I recalled where I had inadvertently hit my ring and he confirmed that it could be polished out. I was super impressed and it was great to know that we had found a great lab vendor and also that our quality was top notch. In the process, Rotem offered to clean our current rings that were on us (a few which he had examined) and he steamed them for free. They're now sparkling and look amazing. While this entire process was painless and easy, what was even better was that in the course of conversation, we learned that Rotem has a strong appreciation for art and design and has a designer who can design any additional rings for our unset gemstones. He was sharing that he'll just charge the cost to make it if we send him pictures of what we want or have a design idea- with out charging all the additional initial design fees, wax fees, etc. that retail and others may charge that bump up the costs. We've been sending our stones to a designer out of state, so it's fantstic to know that we could have someone in-state and close who can probably complete the designs faters, should we wish to. As Rotem had a very large male signet ring on which was clearly custom, and with his appreciation for style and design, we're sure that we'll want to move forward with this as it can be difficult to find someone who designs large male custom rings at an affordable price. We're very much looking forward to that and will be continuing this business relationship. I highly recommend Rotem. I had previously called around to others in about a 50 mile radius accross the Bay Area and all the others (both retail and private business) were charging double and triple his prices. Some other locations had bad attitudes and one brushed me off. One (Baron's Appraier) even said "jewlery is supposed to be worn. If it makes you happy, you don't need an appraisal"- some of the dumbest, mansplainging advice I've ever received. It's especially ignorant to anywhone informed who is not purchasing gemstones to make the happy, but instead for the informed power of gemstones and ring placement and who understands how significant a clean stone versus a stone with inclusions can be to your lifeforce, health, wealth, etc. Thankfully, I, and we, were treated with resepct by Rotem who added value to every aspect of this transaction. Rotem's business names says it all- LifeForce Appraisals. You do get what you're looking for- and more. Most importantly, in all aspects of the experience, Rotem built trust. My only recommendation would be to add some signing to the building outside or hallway to let folks know that they've reached the correct spot. Or, at a minumum to the Yelp page and website so that we're a bit more assured we're in the right location. Also, to other customers, you may have to wait for a call or text back (texting might be faster to the number on the website). As when Rotem was with customers he couldn't immediately respond. Note that it's worth the wait- don't go anywhere else- you'll be treated better here. (And as I mentioned, I called in the morning, confirmed by 12, and was seen by 3:30 after his prior appointment ended) so it was great service. Thank you, Rotem.
