I have had the pleasure of working with Derek Bellefontaine from Mari-tech for the past two years…read more As a mortgage broker I have dealt with a lot of appraisers over the years but Derek is my go-to because of his quick turn around times, attentiveness and valuation. I have completed over 100 appraisals with Derek now and I have never had an issue on any of them. If there ever was an issue I'm sure he would be quick to respond to help find a solution. I noticed some of the other negative reviews but I have never had this experience with Derek in particular. I'm sure it must be tough being an appraiser as no praise is given when a good job is done but when a property isn't what someone thinks it is worth watch out!

And since I do have first hand knowledge at how personable, how accommodating and how professional the folks at Alderney Real Estate Appraisals are... especially Don Myatt, I had to share. Imagine having to deal with a client, who's away, their bank, and me...the third element to getting things done in a timely manner. No problem at all for Don. It was a pleasure to work with them and definitely who I'll be calling should I ever need a property appraised.

HORRIBLE Appraisal Company, No Service, Rude Staff I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM ESPECIALLY FOR MILITARY…read morePERSONNEL. READ MY STORY. I had an appraisal done by them a few month back, been in the house for only a year and had to move because of work. My house lost 15 000$ in value in a year with their evaluation without any rock solid proof that the market dropped which is actually going up. I discovered that the appraiser evaluated the house with personal feelings, plus the report; I sent it for professional review and got 5 major errors on the report that was not making it VALID. So I had to spend another few 100 of $$$$ to get another appraisal company to do my evaluation because it was just so wrong and stressful to deal with them and they did not want to cooperate showing their errors in front of them How RUDE!!!! So the other company that are well known and have a lot of years and degrees in this domain were so helpful and gave me the real value of my house which is 45 000$ more than the bad report. You lost me as a client and I know i am not the only one.
