Mr Angotti is a legend in his own mind, did a divorce appraisal on my house. Came in 30 grand less…read morethan anyone else on the estimated value of opinion on my prior ownership before my marriage. Put things in his appraisal that didn't exist, refused to look at backdated time stamped pictures to give me a fair shake!!! The worst part was when he came out to do his estimate & value he took the information on the value a few years ago from the other party who was in the divorce. It all became clear he was friends with my attorney, so he added things to the current value that don't exist ( tile in the masterbath, marble countertops it's cultured big difference in $$ amount) when I questioned him regarding taking info from a divorce appraisal from anyone let alone the other party is a big nono, to most of us he slipped and admitted he did!!! He is the prime example of what our system has turned into, he appears to work with certain Attorneys on these things all for profit, not ethics truth & concern. Let alone adding things to the appraisal that don't exist, a skilled appraiser with any knowledge at all would know the difference in linoleum & tile one would think? Let alone marble countertops! When when questioned said he tried on files he had in his office, told him he needs to update his files. And stop his approach to taking peoples money, stay neutral independent & stop adding things at his discretion!! If your atty suggests using him, I would run as far as fast as I can. Because he like some local atty: are dirty and continue to get away with it!!! We have the emails phoney reports, worse the money he was paid for was wasted because he had already filled his phony scripted info if you question him he won't even respond.

I recently contracted with Don Angotti to do an appraisal on my parents home after their deaths in…read moreorder to get a new cost basis for estate purposes. Don was very aware of the purpose of the appraisal as he commented that there is always a "range" in home valuation for appraisal purposes and understood that higher would be better in this case. He asked if I was in a hurry and I said "no...not particularly". Big mistake. I had dealt with other appraisers on other properties and none ever took longer than a couple of weeks to get something to me. After 4 weeks of hearing nothing back from Don I called him and asked him what was taking so long. He said that we had agreed that he would "get to this when he could". We had agreed on no such thing and certainly there was no discount to the price for this type of consideration. He asked if I would like him to put this in his active pile...I said "yes". Another mistake apparently. After 2 additional weeks, Don finally sent me the appraisal. Immediately when I saw what he "valued" the home at, it was clear that he was punishing me for asking him to actually do what I was paying him to do in a timely (too late) manner. Not only that, 5 minutes after the appraisal hit my in-box he was on the phone to me asking to be paid. I paid him...grudgingly...and then immediately found another appraiser to work with. He did the appraisal in 2 weeks and the value of the home was much more in-line with what I knew the true value of the home to be. He of course did this with all the same publicly available information that Don had to work with...but apparently chose not to. I wasted not only my money, but considerable time as well working with Don. My advice is to run, don't walk, from any dealings you might be considering with him.

Austin at Realvals did a great job appraising our property. He responded quickly to a Yelp inquiry…read moreand provided a cost estimate right away, a price that was well below that of competitors. He's licensed and professional, and the final report was comprehensive and exactly what we were looking for. Additionally, he's a really nice and considerate guy. We don't wear shoes in the house (read: Asian), and he removed his shoes before entering. I wasn't even going to ask, but he did it anyway. This may seem like a small thing to others, but this level of consideration and respect for a household says a lot about his character. We got an appointment quickly and the turnaround time was fast. Really couldn't have imagined this happening in a better way. Thank you, Austin!
