Once again, another victim of the clear capital hucksters

CC is a joke.

Oh My God !!!

Am I dreaming? How did an entire nation of supposedly ethical professionals ever go with this?

Wake me when it’s over.

Don’t forget “leveraging data; value-added and harmonizing the process”

Clever industry specific language can be bedazzling to the laymen. For those in the know, it’s like, over the top and all hype.

“Revolutionary”? Hardly. The typical problem in this day and age is an enormous body of under informed consumers. If you have it for sale, someone will buy it. Price and value have nothing to do with it.

“Values with value”. Think about that for an additional few seconds and if you can make sense of that, please do keep me informed. How about; “Pricing with prices.” or how about; “Food with nutrients”, “Employees with a job.”

Let’s be honest about the ‘advantages of desktop appraisals’. It’s awesome for lenders, sought after by scammers, a gift of manna for investors, and is somewhat helpful to regular mortgage lending consumers if they don’t mind getting walked into deals with absolutely minimal to absent realistic protections in place. Full service appraisals provided by quality licensed individually accountable help? Who needs that?

The yellow-tinged journalism of William Randolph Hearst’s creation has finally been perfected. He’d have considered Goebbels nothing more than a heavy-handed, government piker. The real talent is convincing those that are being conned that the news is real, and the ‘obvious solutions’ is the readers own ideas.

Executive or managerial ‘staff’ have to be ruthless. Being production staff merely requires ignorance. It’s a tough combination to overcome.

When I get serious about fees and professionalism for the biggest investment in most peoples lifetimes, I complete my work day in nifty yellow striped socks and give pin buttons out in between social justice events.

It can be difficult to retain a ruthless staff which overlooks the basic ethics of fair engagement. These companies attract rather ruthless people and for those whom are fair minded, they often tend to turn over rather quickly.

I can’t wait to sign up to be ‘managed’ by a $15 an hour employee with no industry experience, and have my appraisals reviewed and approved by the 2 yr jr licensing guy.

That’s been going around a lot lately. fake news is everywhere. So much so that people whom still subscribe to syndication completely don’t even know the majority of what they see on tv and read in the paper is paid for corporate approved messages. If Goebbels were alive today, he would be so proud. People are so fully immersed in self interested ideals they don’t even understand how they’re being used by the corporations they blindly serve. Some things are more important than money. But you got to make, like, business decisions, focus on the bottom line, disregard ethic and logic to get there, it’s o.k. to shut someone else down as long as you win, and all of that nonsense.

Villigence and awareness is a good thing, otherwise, before you know it, like these propaganda pieces going out in press releases, they will have Appraisers convinced, believing everyone in the Appraiser communities are embracing them.

The sad part is that they had no idea why your fee (or the assignment) was more complex than a conforming, non complex run of the mill fnma assignment. That alone should be enough for them to be debarred from managing appraisals in your state. They proved themselves to be incapable of assuring appraiser competency simply by their fee expectation.
