Home was listed for 459000. Had several full price offers, settled on no contingency offer with a back up offer over asking price. Closing date was for April 27th. Kara was scheduled to do an appraisal the saturday before closing. She cancelled 2 hours before she was supposed to arrive. Kara completed submitted her results of the appraisal 5 days prior to scheduled closing and came in 40,000 under asking price. Kara was asked to reevaluate. Unfortunately, she did not respond to the request until a week after closing. She admitted to finding a comp that was more accurate and the value was closer to the asking price. We took a significant loss in the sale of our home because of the lack of knowledge by this appraiser. I should also mention that while Kara was taking pictures I was working from home in my kitchen. I specifically asked her if she needed a picture of the kitchen. She said no, I was fine to stay where I was. When I received a copy of the appraisal, she had taken a picture of me with my back to her sitting at the counter. I have never seen an appraisal with humans in the pictures. This should not have happened...very unprofessional.
* this reviewer has be with this appraiser for <6 months
