About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to National Appraisal Partners LLP and noticed something odd. The sign outside read ‘Closed for Appraisals,’ but when he looked inside, the office doors were wide open. Curious, the delivery man peered inside and saw only empty desks and quiet computers. Then, from behind him, came a soft voice: 'Morning! Can I help you?' Turning around, he found an old gentleman with a twinkle in his eye. 'Oh, I'm just checking if everything's okay,' stammered the driver. 'Everything’s dandy!' replied the neighbor, waving a newspaper. 'We’re having our annual appraisal party today.'
2. A curious neighbor stopped by one afternoon, carrying an old map case under his arm. As he approached the entrance, he overheard two agents whispering excitedly about something hidden in the basement. Curious, our neighbor opened the heavy basement door and peered inside. What he found was a dusty old safe, its numbers worn away. The agents pretended not to notice him, but their nervous glances told another story. Turns out, they were just organizing a surprise birthday party for a new colleague—complete with a treasure hunt and a vintage safe as the prize.
3. A realtor was showing a house when she heard a voice from behind her: ‘Excuse me, ma’am, but you’ve got your prices all wrong!’ She turned around and saw nobody. Shrugging it off, she continued showing the house. Later that day, while packing up, she found an envelope on the table with a note inside: ‘Your prices are spot-on, ma’am.’ Curious, she opened it—and inside were several photos of the house, each one marked with a big red cross. She burst out laughing, realizing it must have been a prank from a regular who’d seen too many renovation shows!’
4. A salesperson was making their rounds through the office one quiet morning when they overheard two colleagues whispering excitedly near the water cooler. One of them pointed towards a package on the desk and whispered, ‘Did you see that? The new CEO’s coffee just arrived!’ They both burst out laughing, not realizing that it was actually a bouquet of flowers for someone else’s birthday. By lunchtime, everyone in the office knew about the mix-up—and so did the entire building's staff.
