Whak Real Estate Appraisals

Mr. Michael Mills of WHAK Real Estate Appraisals appraised 41 year old house with mold and water damage, slab leak, violations of building code, massive termite infestation, rat droppings in the attic, illegal re-pipe outside the house, 41 years old and non functional Heating and Air Conditioning system, violations of the building code, broken roof tiles, stained and dirty carpeting as above average 20 year old property and used as comps newly renovated houses. His appraisal was equal to the sale price ($720,000) and despite that it was independent it contained numerous statements by the real estate agent who was a dual agent. Subsequently Orange County Assessor reduced valuation of this house by $122,000 to $598,000 due to location of the house and major problems that made house non livable. Insurance company had cancelled house insurance. My requests for correcting appraisal were ignored by Mr. Mills. I do not recommend Mr. Mills as an Appraiser to anyone purchasing house.
