The history of North East Ohio Appraisal Group, Ltd. begins in the early 1990s when John Wirbickas, Ron Chochola, James Smith, Douglas Pugh, and Linda Kerr were the nucleus of CJS Appraisal Service. When Charles Slama, owner of CJS Appraisal Service, passed away in December 1994, John, Ron, James, Douglas, and Linda decided to start their own company servicing the clientele they had developed throughout the years. They opened North East Ohio Appraisal Group, Ltd. in January 1995 and have earned a reputation for offering some of the fastest turnaround times in the industry.
