Lanier Appraisal Service

Hired Lanier Appraisal Service to do a pre-listing appraisal for an upcoming listing for a client. Mary was super communicative throughout the whole process. I needed it done by a certain date and she delivered on-time as promised. Would absolutely use them in the future.

Mary is fantastic! I'm a real estate agent and have used her for a few pre-listing appraisals and her knowledge of the market has been invaluable. Having her data on hand during multiple offer situations allowed my sellers to navigate the chaos of this crazy market with clear heads and got them the best price for their home! Knowing your home's actual worth is a necessity and Mary's info. has been spot on every time!

On behalf of Bella Realty Group, it is a genuine pleasure and honor for me to recommend Lanier Appraisal Service for your consideration. I have worked closely with Mary Thompson in both a professional and personal capacity for more than 10 years. Mary is professional, prompt, and knowledgeable. As a Broker, I rely upon her expertise to provide the most thorough property valuations for my Lake Lanier clients. Her comprehension & unique understanding of waterfront properties equip me so that I may better serve my clients with their best options and possibilities. I trust her implicitly & she is well respected among her peers. I am grateful for her partnership and contributions to this industry!

Finding an appraiser who is knowledgeable about lake properties is definitely a hit or miss proposition and if you have been around the lake long enough you certainly hear your share of bad experiences. When we decided to sell our lake home, Mary Thompson's name kept coming up as the "go to" person in terms of Lake Lanier appraisals and we certainly could not agree more based on our experience.

Not only was Mary prompt, professional, fair and knowledgeable, she was great to work with and provided valuable home marketing advice as well. Her appraisal not only helped us establish an objective and defensible asking price, but it was also invaluable both to us as the sellers and to the buyers during negotiations on the final purchase agreement. We closed on our house last week, having had an incredibly pleasant and smooth transaction, in no small part because Mary helped us establish a fair and reasonable price.

We would strongly advise getting an appraisal before marketing your home, especially a lake home given how unique each property tends to be, and you would be hard pressed to find a more skilled and objective appraiser to work with than Mary Thompson and Lanier Appraisal Service.

I am very happy with Lanier Appraisal Service and Mary Thompson who recently appraised our Lake Lanier Home. She was very knowledgeable with Lake Properties. This whole process was new to me, but I am very glad that my Realtor suggested I have an appraisal done in order to determine how much I should List my property for. Mary spent a good deal of time at my home taking photos and measuring my house, and even provided me with suggestions on how to make my home show well for prospective buyers. I had no idea what my Lake home was really worth and she provided me with that information.

She was very professional and helpful and if anyone is thinking of selling their Lake home or just wants to know what their home is worth, I recommend Lanier Appraisal Service and their appraiser Mary Thompson for the job.
