“I have worked with Michael over the years on several complex valuations. His appraisals are thoroughly reasoned, detailed and on time!”
“I have had the great pleasure of working with Michael Lester. He provided an analysis of a large property on short notice and he completed the work as quickly as we needed it. It was very critical to decisions that were made. I would turn to Michael for the next opportunity. I am impressed by his professionalism and his work product. I expect Michael and his colleagues will continue to earn great success in a business that has never been more important.”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Michael Lester on an appraisal for a financing in Howard County, Maryland. We had a tight timeline to refinance the existing note and Michael worked very hard to accommodate the short turnaround on the appraisal. Michael is clearly well qualified and very experienced in his practice and I really enjoyed working with him. If you are looking for diligent, thorough and thoughtful appraisal group to work with, I highly recommend Willowbrook Valuation.”
“Michael did excellent work on a large commercial valuation in Fairfax County, with a very quick turnaround in both of the two “phases” of the project. Michael was clear in defining the scope of the work, and incredibly well organized in his requests for materials needed for the valuation, which showed in the quality/thoroughness of the end product. While his work speaks for itself, Michael was also the consummate professional throughout: courteous, flexible, and maybe most importantly with complicated commercial valuations, persistent! I will certainly recommend Michael and Willowbrook to my clients as future valuation needs arise.”
“Michael is an excellent analyst and appraiser. He is thorough and timely with his services and has excellent customer service.”
“I’ve worked with Willowbrook professionally for a number of years. They are very competent, responsive, time sensitive, and charge fairly for their services. Their reports are excellent.”
“I had a 10 day deadline to obtain an appraisal for my condominium building. I called Michael Lester at Willowbrook. He came out the same day I called and sent the appraisal report ahead of the deadline. He was professional and knowledgeable. His report was complete and accepted easily by our insurance company. I was extremely pleased with Willowbrook.”
“Willowbrook did valuation work for us at a complicated, adaptive re-use project. They were diligent in reviewing the information we provided, thorough in their site review and responsive as questions and issues were raised. We would certainly look to work with them again.”
“Michael is a driven professional committed to leveraging technology within his appraisal work. He is a dynamic appraiser that delivers thorough and high quality analysis in a timely manner across a broad scope of work. I would recommend Willowbrook Valuation for any valuation needs.”

Appraisals and valuations have always been very thorough and completed in a timely manner. Michael also has been a great resource for our clients who need appraisals and tax appeals.”

I would highly recommend Michael in future valuation propositions.”
