BEWARE! In a text, I asked Ellie if she is asking me for payment before delivery of appraisal and she responded, "YEAH" " Most clients pay upon completion of the inspection" Versus the actual delivery of appraisal. I then asked her if the report was done and she said, "No its not." She then told me, If I did not want to move forward, that's fine." Further Ellie said, "I, as an appraiser, no longer feel comfortable proceeding," canceling our contract. She then demanded payment and threatened in an e mail, "If payment is not received by October 15th, 2025, The Jo Daviess County Assessor Office, Eagle Ridge Galena Territory Board and Jo Daviess County Circuit Clerk's Office will be thoroughly notified." "In my opinion Ellie is very unprofessional and more interested in money than her

Ellie at EFK was very professional. She not only handled her appraisal work responsibly, but also made every effort to coordinate with my tenant for site visits. She responded quickly and communicated clearly. I highly recommend her.

Ellie was able to come out the very next day, which I really appreciated given my tight timeline. She was professional, punctual, and respectful throughout the entire process. She took her time walking through the home, was very thorough, and explained everything clearly. I felt confident that she knew exactly what she was doing and that the appraisal was being handled with care and accuracy. Her report came back quickly, and it was detailed and easy to understand. Ellie made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable and knowledgeable appraiser—she was a pleasure to work with from start to finish.
