Testimonials

Previously as a Portfolio Manager I had Patricia Staebler as a Reserve Analyst on a few of my properties. I have always enjoyed working with Patricia and her staff as they are very knowledgeable, thorough, and accommodating. This year, as the General Manager at The Pointe on Siesta Key, our professional relationship was raised to another level. The new State regulations caused a fair amount of anxiety through the Board and various Committees. Patricia demonstrated her knowledge of the new regulations and a large amount of patience in educating the members of our Association. Patricia was willing to meet with Committee members a number of times until they were satisfied they understood the new regulations. More importantly, Patricia was able to inform our Association in a straight-forward but kind manner that our previous plan concerning our reserves was not going to be successful. With Patricia’s help The Pointe has developed a financial plan that will build our reserves and meet all State regulations this year and for years to come. The Pointe looks forward to a long and fruitful relationship with Patricia Staebler.

I would like to thank you for your services related to our 2018 Reserve Study. We all were surprised to learn that the railing systems had not been included in our prior studies and that our elevators were undervalued; two very high-ticket items. I appreciate your availability to meet with the Reserve Chair and the board members to answer their questions, that made the process go much smoother.

I have personally worked with Staebler Appraisal for two years now. Since our first interaction I have recommended their service to many other associations, and continue without hesitation to do so. Patricia and her staff are extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful, not only with the appraisals and reserve studies, but with any area that they can be of assistance. You can count on the information they provide to assist in your decision making without worry.

Jason Dearth Sarabande Property Manager

I was given Ms. Staebler’s name a few years ago for an insurance appraisal, and I’m very glad I was! Since that time, she has done numerous insurance appraisals for us – from simple to extremely complex – as well as building reserve studies. Most recently, however, she served as our expert witness in litigation that we successfully prosecuted. She was extremely helpful in both her analysis and consulting services, coordinated well with our attorney, and her confident and capable testimony was instrumental in convincing the judge of our approach. In fact, the ruling in our favor specifically highlighted Ms. Staebler’s testimony. She is always a pleasure to work with – professional, quick replies, and pinpoint detail. I would highly recommend her!

Mindy Kauffman, Red Property Management LLC, Sarasota, FL

As a commercial property and casualty insurance advisor specializing in Condominiums and Manufactured Housing Communities I am virtually always confronted with the need to obtain accurate building insurable values. Unfortunately, this was always a challenging task. Very few appraisers, and I have dealt with many in my 40-year career, have the slightest idea what the “Law and Ordinance” (code upgrade) exclusion is, much less how to calculate accurate figures for it. After years of arguing with appraisers and searching for someone who was familiar with this critical issue, I was most fortunate to connect with Patricia Staebler. Patricia is not only the finest, most thorough appraiser with whom I have worked, but her unique value is as an experienced State of Florida licensed property insurance claims adjuster. She is thoroughly familiar with the actual coverage in the property policies, and will tailor her appraisals accordingly. I am not aware of any other appraiser with this critical background. When I recommend Patricia to my clients, I can feel comfortable that they will be receiving a quality product with which I can make both them and myself feel comfortable and secure.

Pat Carlisle, CIC, Senior Vice President, HUB International Florida

Thank you for the very professional and well prepared FEMA appraisal. It is so well supported and analyzed that I am sure it will work very well for us. I would be happy to recommend you to any client.

The hazard appraisal stands at the center of every quality insurance program, ultimately responsible for the accuracy and efficacy of property coverage. In an arena such as Florida where property perils are a very real possibility and stakes so high, Staebler Appraisal and Consulting happens to win best in class. Hazard appraisals are essential to mitigate possible financial exposures due to cover gaps such as underinsurance and co-insurance penalty risk, as well as the avoidance of possible over payment due to unnecessary limit overages. When presented with a Staebler appraisal reports, you will find a level of depth and attention to detail highly regarded among top professionals, coupled with an ease of use, which successfully translates information to persons outside the insurance industry. Additionally, with Ordinance of Law exposure being among the largest and most often overlooked coverage gaps a commercial insured unknowingly faces, attempts to quantify the actual risk are difficult at best. Staebler Consulting offers Ordinance of Law appraisals, which take the guess work out of the equation for the client and risk professional, allowing for an accurate discussion and assessment of the potential risk at hand given a loss. This is an essential tool to have when developing a comprehensive insurance program, and proof positive that Staebler Consulting is an ever-evolving partner you can trust.

Staebler has been working with Sarabande Condominiums for many years. We are happy with their services. They provide the Reserve Study, Reserve Updates, and the Building Appraisal. They are local, and their prices are very competitive.

Normand Jacques, Sarabande Condominium Association, Inc., Sarasota, FL

Working with Patricia Staebler has always been a welcomed opportunity, as she is extremely professional and very informative. As a new manager, Patricia has provided my communities and I priceless education and reports we can understand. Her ability to ease the board and managers through a process of information gathering is appreciated and the reports provided in the end are organized and readable.

Shannon M. Banks, CAM Lighthouse Property Management

Patricia is an excellent resource for both insurance appraisals and reserve studies. She used invoices and proposals we had on hand as well as local resources she had available to more accurately paint a picture of our asset values. Using local repair costs as opposed to regional or national cost, as was done in the past, helped our community keep estimated cost down and more accurately prepare to meet and fund our future goals. Patricia is right there, whenever anyone on our executive team had a question, she responded right away. We are so glad we found Staebler Appraisal and Consulting.

Jane Jarlenski, CMCA, AMS, PCAM, Americana Cove

I have managed serval Condominium Associations over the years. I had come across Staebler Appraisal years ago; my board was extremely impressed by Patricia’s presentation. We immediately signed up with her company to handle our Reserve Study. Patricia always does a great job explaining everything in full detail, and as being a property manager, I found this to be the best reserve study I have ever seen, along with the time. Patricia’s dedication is amazing, and she is always looking out for the best interest of the association. Every association I have managed, I have brought them in, and they were always grateful I did.

Elisa Andersen, Rivo at Ringling, Sarasota, FL

Laura Howell, CMCA, Property Manager, Covered Bridge Estates

It has been a genuine pleasure and a privilege to be a part of Patricia’s growth as an appraiser. Her’s is a great story of perseverance, dedication and integrity, and a commitment to doing it the right way.

Robert Dunham, MAI, SRA

Our insurance rate increased in excess of 100% in 24 months, escalating replacement cost values in a crashing real estate market. With very short notice, Patricia Staebler and her associates were on site conducting an in-depth evaluation. In addition, they took the extra time to meet with the building’s developer to ensure they understood every nuance of the construction methods. After their analysis, they delivered a professional, fully documented and illustrated appraisal document to the Association’s Board in an extraordinary time frame. The first year insurance savings to the Association was in excess of $27,000! If you demand the service of a world class organization that delivers what they promise, on time and professionally packaged, choose Staebler Appraisal and Consulting.

Ric Burton, Association Treasurer, Tierra Verde, Florida

Patricia Staebler is competent, friendly and a great resource. She helped us work through a complicated reserve report and her leadership was much appreciated. The report itself is very clear and very helpful.

Steve Lerner

I found your appraisals to be very detailed and accurate. Your appraisals are considerably better than what I have received in the past from other appraisers. Your appraisals have literally saved thousands of dollars for my associations. Thanks so much for a job well done.

James M. Faix, CMCA, AMS, PCAM, President, Polaris Property Management, Inc.

Patricia Staebler has been doing our reserve study since the association was formed, she has done a complete and thorough evaluation and done so in a timely manner. We have another being done this year and we will again use Patricia. Additionally, Patricia has been instrumental in providing documentation for a legal matter the association is currently involved in.
