Robert came to do appraisal for my refinancing.
He spent max 5 minutes in our 4000sft house and close to 1 acre property, taking irrelevant notes and pictures.
The appraisal came 15% lower than it should have been. Fortunately it did not affect my refinancing but it could have caused problems some other time or someone else in a different situation. But I was still upset because I paid for it.
I analyzed his report and pointed out major flaws in it, especially the comparable sales he had used. I made my own analyses that showed how he estimated the sft price of my house 20% lower than the average in my area and using comparable sales that were not that comparable at all.
I never got any response from him, he was probably too busy spending 5 minutes in somebody else's house and 30 minutes on the analyses and report.
* this reviewer had 6 - 10 dentists before.
