He was friendly, informative, honest and excellent with communication. He helped make the process of this sale so easy for all parties involved. My client is also a lender so she and I have a ton of experience with other agents and we both were extremely impressed and would love any opportunity to work with Rod again! His local knowledge and resources have been a huge help. If you're looking to buy or sell in the Arnold/ Murphys area from another agent perspective I can truly say you will be so glad if you choose Rod. If you're an agent, watch for Rods listings because thats who you want on the other side of a transaction!

For my home renovation loan, Peters Real Estate Appraisal services inspected/verified my…read moreconstruction work on behalf of the bank. This is more the type of work for a building inspector, than an appraiser, and as it turned out, I would have been much better off with an inspector. In order to speed final inspection as requested by the bank, the bank okay-ed a temporary deck railing construction of chicken wire, knowing that I cannot install the permanent solution now for a variety of reasons; chicken wire is code-compliant, cheap, safe, and was okay-ed in advance by everyone involved. Enter Peters Real Estate Appraisals. Peters "failed" me on my inspection because he didn't think the chicken wire would value my house adequately. In other words, chicken wire doesn't look as nice as wood; he was appraising my construction for value, not inspecting my construction for code compliance as he should have been. Peters knew perfectly well that the chicken wire solution was temporary, but he forced me to rip out one temporary solution for another much more expensive temporary solution of his choosing - douglas fir - knowing full well that I have to immediately rip that out too. Peters is more interested in playing games, than in doing the right thing to best serve the community (e.g. both me and the bank). Peters cost me an extra $5000 in what is now fire wood, just so he could take a picture of it. I understand that the banks took a beating for the recent financial crisis, and we now have new regulations disallowing banks working directly with appraisers/inspectors and everyone is more picky, but this is ridiculous. A simple renovation loan, where I have to spend thousands building temporary solutions makes the loan not worth it. This intentional lack of coordination between parties is an example of what is bankrupting home owners. I'm certain the regulators didn't intend this as a result of their efforts. Peters Real Estate Appraisals can and should make an effort to be reasonable and make good decisions, and help to be a part of the solution, and not create new and worse problems.
