Block Appraisals

I hired Block Appraisals for my Manhattan condo on the Upper West Side and was pleased with how straightforward everything was. The appraiser arrived on time and worked through the inspection without disrupting my schedule. Their market analysis reflected current conditions in the neighborhood and the valuation aligned with what I had expected.
Scott was very detailed as he went through the house and property. Scott explained each step of the process and kept in touch with me until the appraisal was completed. Once the report was sent Scott call to make sure I fully understood what was in it. If you need to have your home appraised I would definitely recommend Scott Block!!
Scott has given me phenomenal service! He explains everything and gives you your options depending on your needs. When he arrived for the appraisal appointment he was very polite, thoughtful and thorough in his work. The finished appraisal documents were perfect and all done in a timely manner. I will definitely recommend his service. Thanks again Scott!

Scott from Block Appraisals evaluated my one-bedroom apartment in Jackson Heights and handled everything professionally. The appraiser knew the Queens market well and pulled comparables that accurately reflected what units in my area had been selling for. The report was thorough and my lender accepted it without requesting any revisions.

I hired Block Appraisals for a pre-listing appraisal on my Park Slope condo and the experience was straightforward. The appraiser examined the unit carefully and took note of the recent kitchen updates we had completed. Having an independent valuation before pricing the apartment gave us more confidence going into negotiations.

Scott performed a retrospective appraisal of a Manhattan co-op apartment for purposes of Estate valuation. His work was thorough and his demeanor professional at all times. He also provided very helpful guidance on how to obtain necessary information from the property manager and ran the information down himself when they were being obstinate. I would recommend his services to others.
