I would strongly encourage anyone considered Armstrong Appraisals, LLC to look elsewhere when evaluating commercial appraisers. Dave F was recommended to me and I decided to give him a shot. We had an appointment scheduled this Monday (02/21/2020) at 12:00 pm for him to appraise a commercial property I am considering purchasing. I arrived at 12:00 pm and Mr. F was at the property, he told me he had shown up 30 minutes early and that the owner was there when he arrived. At that point he told me had completed the property inspection and that he was finished. Um, what? We literally made an appointment for 12 pm and when I showed up at 12 pm he said that he was finished and that he would invoice me $650 for my limited restricted appraisal. I think that for $650 I should at least be able to walk the property with the appraiser, ask him a bit about his process, etc. The entire purpose of making an appointment was so that I could be present with him. Nonetheless, he told me I would have my report by Thursday. He invoiced me on Monday and I paid him his $650 fee within 30 minutes. I also spoke to him about another matter, and requested some assistance with formatting a pro forma statement for another property. Initially he told me he would not be able to help me, but then he changed course and said that he would send me something by the next morning. Here I am on Friday without my report that I already paid $650 and was promised by yesterday, and he also did not reach out to me at all regarding the other issue. Needless to say, I will never use Dave F or Armstrong Appraisals for any commercial property needs presently or in the future, and I would encourage any savvy investor or property owner to look elsewhere. This man does not deliver the services that he promises. UPDATE: I spoke with Dave Fontana this morning (02/24/2020) and asked him to either provide me with report today or a refund of my money. He said that he would be willing to do either, I requested a refund as I was so thoroughly dissatisfied with his lack of work. He stated that he processed the refund and that it is pending. We will see.
