One doctor?  You appear to have made presumptions and have not bothered to put in real research, preferring to be spoon fed corporate talking points.  That guy assimilated factual discoveries from untold research efforts over many years.  Try a worldwide consortium of tens of thousands of high level esteemed doctors, phd&#039;s, and a hundred thousand or more medical professionals whom have been silenced from the public eye, if you don&#039;t know where to look.  Try again.  I told you it would be difficult to reconcile.  Welcome to the power of censorship, and why freedom of speech is the first amendment.  It&#039;s all been done before under different iterations.  If there is such grave risk, how could all these people be just fine without partaking in the illusion?  You have been lied to.  Unless you think there is no financial motivation for bias, a strange position for a valuation analysis professional to take.  I&#039;m sure the greatest wealth transfer in human history, so much that billions went to single individuals, had nothing to do with this.  Perhaps go check out facebook, or any of the thousand other sub publications ran by a handful of global companies, they make sure to shield you from such possibly disconcerting revelations regarding corruption and power.  Thanks for playing, come again.]]></description>

Sorry Baggins. You find one doctor who is refuting, making accusations and arriving at his own conclusions. I don&#039;t believe there is any conspiracy. I don&#039;t believe this article.  And, Baggins, it&#039;s like backing into a predetermined value.  Not buying it.]]></description>

Here to posters Done and Realist, and anyone else interested in truth, please read this.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9062939/

This very very important piece blows the lid off of so much medical industry propaganda which many have been exposed to, and regrettably accepted. If in doubt, opt out. Important principals to live by. This is the most comprehensive piece summarizing the past several years of covid and malpractice I have ever read. Wanted to share this, just received from my family network today. And it’s only fitting to be in this thread about occupational licensing used to intimidate, as that is a root cause of this mismanagement. It’s sad, but never too late to change course.

Realist, get the ivermectin it’s proven to reduce many side effects and is completely safe with the right dose based on your body weight. Where as the masks are proven to instantly promote dangerous pathogen cultures which then spread. As case count spikes with each round of vaccines. One day people will realize their acceptance of these policies is what perpetuated the problem, that the first round of wild virus would have burned out and we&#039;d all have natural immunity, if not for the vaccines.  And far fewer would have perished if the government did nothing at all.  Then after vaccines, the virus came from within themselves, formed of their own fault for complying with irrational public health ‘mandates’. All the compliant people are at fault, not persons whom resisted. It’s a position which many will find hard to reconcile, as they are still voluntarily so deeply immersed and acceptant of ongoing propaganda. Good ideas do not require force. People seem to be finally understanding this concept more broadly, let&#039;s hope it&#039;s not too late.  Thank you.]]></description>

Absolutely, make up your own mind about your own health decisions.  That&#039;s the way these things are supposed to shake out.  Don&#039;t forget to examine all available data, and look at the other side, links provided.  Also, take the time to read the disclaimers on the side of the mask box.  Thank you as well, great conversation here.]]></description>

I had the first 2 covid shots and had long term health affects from the shots. I will not, and wish I had not taken the first 2 shots. I live in one of the towns where a version of the covid stuff is made.  Several Doctors and scientist who worked on the inoculation formula are quite fearful of the long term affects of messing with the DNA as well as other issues. Again, the left politicians and most of the corrupted press have suppressed findings, opinions and research of highly qualified scientist and doctors opposing the totalitarian control and massive power grab - also cancelling many of them. Also, medicines proven to be effective against covid were suppressed and in many cases made unavailable.  Bits of truth have recently been leaking out, no thanks to the main stream press.  Most of the truth will probably be squelched.  

While I would argue that conspiracy&#039;s play a smaller part in America&#039;s demise, much of leftist creations which are destroying America do not have to be from organized conspiracies. Thanks to the ever growing points of indoctrination - there is a large left wing mindset that is snowballing. Enjoy the new left-sided world. It looks unstoppable at this point in time. Congratulations. So wear a mask the rest of your life, have no weapons to protect yourself or you family, terminate the current rate of 3,000 babies per day, and on and on.]]></description>

This is where we part ways. Not everything is a conspiracy.  Masks saved lives. Natural immunity cannot exist in the way you describe. I am fully vaccinated but had Covid in January. I credit the vaccine with my speedy recovery. Appraisers died from Covid. And many have long Covid debilitating effects. I won&#039;t continue this conversation. While I believe you have insight on many things, this is not one of them. Peace, Baggins.]]></description>

You&#039;re dealing with false data though.  What many people need in their lives and may benefit from, are non corporate news sources.  Content control is the name of the game in the era of silent wars.
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/
https://thevaccinereaction.org/
https://www.mercola.com/
https://thelibertydaily.com/

The pandemic of the gullible not the pandemic of the unvaxxinated.  The difference between &#039;conspiracy theory&#039; which would get one censored and even fired, vs what then became at a later date as recognized fact, the time difference for valid truthful data recognition was about 6 months to a year.  The vast majority of trauma suffered, was due to the governments use of force, not a virus.  Rampant censorship is simply unethical.

The masks like the covid vaccines did more harm than good as every whimsical politician turned into an armchair doctor and listened only to big pharma advocates already in place at the government level.  Natural immunity works, much better than masks or vaccines.  These masks are primarily made of plastic and have already turned into an environmental disaster in coastal areas.  They are not recyclable.  Nobody knows for sure, except that humans consumed and then disposed of trillions upon trillions of masks in only a few short years time.

Make a choice;  Embrace the principals of liberty and voluntarism or abandon them all together.  There is no middle ground.  There is no qualifying; liberty for this but not for that.  That&#039;s not how liberty works.  The free world is for the brave.  The fearful can stay at home.  Attempt to restrict other persons liberties at your own peril; we&#039;re not going to voluntarily relinquish our god granted inalienable rights.  

Personally I never stayed at home, I never stopped, our immediate family was never tested traced or jabbed one single time.  We helped spread natural immunity in a safe manner, much safer than the misguided persons whom sought to impose segregation, social distancing, shut downs, and asinine concepts like vaccine passports.   These liberal position arguments have been delivered to you to repeat, they are not your own independent conclusions based on objective impartial consideration.  It&#039;s difficult to reconcile, but you&#039;ve been lied to by the institutions and people you trusted to have your best interests in mind.  

I&#039;m not giving any ground.  We do not give an inch on liberty or they take more than a mile and we never get it back.  Be thankful people like us are still out there, or you would not have any liberties for yourself left today.  Go on, return to your abortion argument, and please remember to be kind and respectful to people whom disagree with you.  None of us should ever argue the use of force without also being prepared ahead of time to accept the use of force without objection if that principal is applied to us.  If you want personal choice the concession is simple; You must promise to never remove anyone elses ability to freely choose themselves.  We must always defend those whom are not capable of defending themselves.  That is the American way.  Truth.  Honor.  Justice.  We The People.]]></description>

<p>The pandemic of the gullible not the pandemic of the unvaxxinated.  The difference between &#8216;conspiracy theory&#8217; which would get one censored and even fired, vs what then became at a later date as recognized fact, the time difference for valid truthful data recognition was about 6 months to a year.  The vast majority of trauma suffered, was due to the governments use of force, not a virus.  Rampant censorship is simply unethical.</p>
<p>The masks like the covid vaccines did more harm than good as every whimsical politician turned into an armchair doctor and listened only to big pharma advocates already in place at the government level.  Natural immunity works, much better than masks or vaccines.  These masks are primarily made of plastic and have already turned into an environmental disaster in coastal areas.  They are not recyclable.  Nobody knows for sure, except that humans consumed and then disposed of trillions upon trillions of masks in only a few short years time.</p>
<p>Make a choice;  Embrace the principals of liberty and voluntarism or abandon them all together.  There is no middle ground.  There is no qualifying; liberty for this but not for that.  That&#8217;s not how liberty works.  The free world is for the brave.  The fearful can stay at home.  Attempt to restrict other persons liberties at your own peril; we&#8217;re not going to voluntarily relinquish our god granted inalienable rights.  </p>
<p>Personally I never stayed at home, I never stopped, our immediate family was never tested traced or jabbed one single time.  We helped spread natural immunity in a safe manner, much safer than the misguided persons whom sought to impose segregation, social distancing, shut downs, and asinine concepts like vaccine passports.   These liberal position arguments have been delivered to you to repeat, they are not your own independent conclusions based on objective impartial consideration.  It&#8217;s difficult to reconcile, but you&#8217;ve been lied to by the institutions and people you trusted to have your best interests in mind.  </p>
<p>I&#8217;m not giving any ground.  We do not give an inch on liberty or they take more than a mile and we never get it back.  Be thankful people like us are still out there, or you would not have any liberties for yourself left today.  Go on, return to your abortion argument, and please remember to be kind and respectful to people whom disagree with you.  None of us should ever argue the use of force without also being prepared ahead of time to accept the use of force without objection if that principal is applied to us.  If you want personal choice the concession is simple; You must promise to never remove anyone elses ability to freely choose themselves.  We must always defend those whom are not capable of defending themselves.  That is the American way.  Truth.  Honor.  Justice.  We The People.</p>

I agree with much of your post. But... in worldwide pandemic, measures need to be taken to stem the spread. Our health care workers died from it. Others quit or committed suicide due to the repeated trauma they faced every day for two years. That is not a usual situation and needs to be treated differently. If you choose not to mask, not to vaccinate, I can&#039;t make you do that. But I can limit the result of your misguided position by limiting your ability to access places in the name of a public safety hazard. You do not have the right to expose others to the virus. Regarding ANSI, the goal is datamining our work. So I don&#039;t support that. More to come... later]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://appraisersblogs.com/occupational-licensing-used-2-intimidate-n-shut-down-discourse/#comment-34637&quot;&gt;Done&lt;/a&gt;.

That&#039;s a reasonable position, individual choices and one should not be coerced. Let&#039;s wipe away the political lens and review the concept of individual sovereignty on a broader spectrum. The most important point any one of us can consider is; do you personally agree with the use of force by government on it&#039;s own citizens?

Logic test: Would you agree;  (Y/N)
all vaccinations should be voluntary without penalty or influence from the government, 
mask wearing should be voluntary without penalty or influence from the government, 
maintaining ones business in an open state at any time without penalty restriction or influence from the government,
maintaining ones ability to work freely all the time without penalty restriction or influence from the government, 
maintaining free speech all the time without penalty or denial of participation, or influence from the government, 
maintaining right to assembly all the time without penalty or influence from the government,
maintaining ability to travel freely without penalty or restriction, 
maintaining private non public individual control over ones personal health choices all the time without penalty or influence from the government, 
maintaining your own medical records in an absolutely private setting, without penalty or influence from the government,
maintaining sovereignty to personal reproductive health decisions all the time without penalty or influence from the government.

Or if you answered no to any of the above questions on personal decision making sovereignty, a new question arises; how much force and coercion do you think is appropriate to thrust your will upon others, using the force of government or even personal non governmental sanctioned force? If one agrees with the use of force, we then must define acceptable levels of force to be applied. Social penalties? Financial penalties? Physical penalties? Capital punishment? Who decides the appropriate measure of force; The person imposing the force or the person subject to receiving the force?  

Covid highlighted the governments existing over reach, as the equal protection clause is all but abandoned. You could choose here, choice was removed there, this person worked, that class of worker did not, this group subjected to vax mandate, that group not subjected, this state affirmed personal liberty, that state eroded liberties further. So people got up and left, they voted with their wallets and their feet. As it turns out, although this is entirely predictable; freedom loving people are not all that keen to the use of government force when it becomes imposed on them personally. The concept is all well and good when one is on the receiving end of the welfare warfare state benefits, but as they say; be careful what you wish for.  

Any and every instance of departure from voluntarism has dire consequences which is where historical quotes like Lincoln come in; Familiarize yourselves with the chains of bondage and you are preparing your own limbs to wear them. Accustomed to trample on the rights of those around you, you have lost the genius of your own independence, and become the fit subjects of the first cunning tyrant who rises. (I think we&#039;ve all observed quite a few examples of that lately.) Liberty, love it or leave it. And once it&#039;s gone, you won&#039;t get it back.

Sovereignty is a simple concept. Because there is no middle ground to the concept of personal liberty. Liberty is an all or nothing proposition. Abortion complicates the issue because the argument may be subjective to people depending on their point of view, defining the confirmation of person hood at conception or all the way to at birth. Yet the principal being debated is the same; Should government be involved at all? Remember that we should always debate the principal first, and should never embrace unconstitutional principals, like the use of force by government. Because; We hold these truths to be self evident.

And I&#039;ll just throw in there; Maintaining liberty for personal choice to decide what sketch methods an individual appraiser should use. See, another abuse of position and authority by the force of government. FNMA ANSI FAQ; Can appraisers voluntarily opt out of using the ANSI standard; &quot;NO&quot;. I have never read a more offensive piece of government guidance. A one word denial, because they have the overburdening power to do so and don&#039;t even need to explain why. The rhetoric of no, applied by FNMA. Whomever wrote that should be fired, they have no place regulating anyone or anything, because they abuse their positions over others.

Nothing is more offensive to the principals of liberty and the human condition in general, than departing from voluntarism and voluntary engagements. We don&#039;t need mandates, uniform standards, or the use of force when we have personal accountability through the use of sound money and contract law. That is what Article1 Section 10 is all about.]]></description>

Just because there are some physical connections to the mother prior to birth does not diminish the baby&#039;s personhood status in spite of how the pro-abortion camp tries to twist the real truth.

Doesn&#039;t the 1004 format ask for the terms of the offer made? Isn&#039;t that an appraiser item? Or didn&#039;t the client provide the terms for the appraiser&#039;s analysis? Always fill out that section, there is a difference in pricing between 95% financing and 75% financing, and it can be analyzed as a part of the appraisers Opinion of Value. If the deal falls thru is the buyer still responsible? Or would your opinion reflect a penalty or a something else?]]></description>

There is that annoying propaganda, repeated again.  We&#039;re out here killing everyone and putting peoples lives in danger from a virus with a 99.9% survivability rate, by not wearing unnecessary counter productive environmentally damaging and personal health destroying and liberty destroying masks.  

Please allow me to introduce you to the concept of voluntarism.  It&#039;s nobody elses business if anyone else adopts guns, or masks.  The role of government is not to tell us how we ought to live, as the role of government is specifically limited to protecting our liberties.  We should not be using the force of government to push other innocent people around.

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/3-million-masks-a-minute/

Mandatory mask supporters seriously hate the environment.

You know what, we&#039;re tired of radicals out there trying to tell us what we&#039;re supposed to be doing with our bodies. We said no to testing. We said no to tracing. We said no to masks. We said no to vaccines. No means no and it does not mean anything else. We also said no to big government because taxation is theft. Get your mind around it.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://appraisersblogs.com/occupational-licensing-used-2-intimidate-n-shut-down-discourse/#comment-34586&quot;&gt;Baggins&lt;/a&gt;.

Hi Done.  I was putting in some foreclosure research, it&#039;s coming back to me now.  Notice of intent filed, public information.  Cure period defined.  Most cure out.  If unable or unwilling to cure, moves on to public auction via county trustee.  Listed for sale, qualified bidders, then sale posted publicly.  It&#039;s pretty straight forward but after about a day on this I remember why we made a play at an MLS listing rather than take on such uncertainty and monumental time to research efforts w/ auctions, when the far majority of these notices don&#039;t actually go all the way to foreclosure.  Most records are just people for one reason or another, not paying their bills.

One of the interesting trends I observed which was not happening last cycle circa 2010 and before, is that many lenders are buying their own properties back at the indebted amount.  Then I keep seeing them having resold at current market value, substantially higher.  I did observe a housing developer bid on some vacant land and the debt shortage was in the millions, but otherwise for regular suburbia it appears that if people are bidding, they&#039;re paying defaulted amounts or substantially higher.  I observed a small handful of llc&#039;s and unique identifier purchasers having ran multiple purchase then rehab open mls market resales over the past year or two.  Looks like they&#039;re raking 100k to 200k per effort.  But there are not too many of them.

Then I&#039;m reviewing terms and condition for participating in the auction.  Oh yes it&#039;s all coming back to me now and my ears are burning red.  That&#039;s because I&#039;m imagining myself handing fifty thousand dollar certified funds check or money orders to the treasurer, and also having to specifically do that for whatever I intend to bid on.  It&#039;s not quite the penny auction one may romanticize, from back in the day.

However, it&#039;s interesting to review the material.  The body of notices appear to be financial distress and the delay time while the county manages these people in the foreclosure pipelines appear to be substantial, year, sometimes more, probably special policies post covid accounting for delays.  When given time it appears many people here are curing the arrears if that&#039;s the right language, and are curing.  Of course we&#039;re in a hot market so in all probability, that accounted for some turnover as they sold and cashed out instead, no short position required.  But every now and then, the opportunistic bidders carve out exceptional below market value purchases which happen to be higher than indebted amounts, and  I keep seeing them back on market getting flipped.  Research method includes a lot of address highlighting, r click search on google, and date range research speculation, just looked at a few hundred pdf notices.

Looks like it&#039;s not quite swirling the bowl yet and the notice of foreclosure quantity which is actually making it to the end point auction setting is still very low, could be 1%,2%, just quite low, dozens of pages of notices, a sparse few individuals in the posted monthly sales list.  That was interesting to research though, but I think in positive appreciation markets, don&#039;t hold your breath waiting for the reo market to boost forward quite yet.  It&#039;s reactionary and right now things appear to be mostly in control, at least in the few mid affluent counties I researched in CO.  

These dang websites like foreclosure dot com, they don&#039;t tell the whole story.  They just monetize the searchability of publicly posted default lists but the real deal is if the filing does not get cured, otherwise the data instance is not an actual foreclosure, not yet at least.  There are not quite as many actual foreclosures, just a lot of notice of intent to foreclose.  They don&#039;t really advertise those points, those sites are like click bait for fix flip hopefuls whom don&#039;t understand county research.  One does get slightly apprehensive when so many new notices appear though, that part has ticked up, we&#039;ll see what happens.

Here;  An overview of the process.  Many make it cryptic so this was a nice refresher to read on the process requirements of bidding with the trustee.
https://larimer.realforeclose.com/index.cfm?ZACTION=HOME&#038;ZMETHOD=FSALEPOL
And here is another county example of posted lists
https://apps.adcogov.org/PTForeclosureSearch/allreports.aspx
One compares foreclosure notices (which is going to be the &#039;current scheduled date range&#039; search boxes, put that past month to a few months in future), one compares total volume of notices against final end point reo off the posted lists, I&#039;m just guessing a few percent but it&#039;s not much.
https://apps.adcogov.org/PTForeclosureSearch/index.aspx

It&#039;s a business you know, there are a set of people whom track these systems and they do so over a large area, they show up with cash in hand to bid, sometimes in the blind.  They&#039;re carving out exceptional margins although one ponders the substantial time drain to research so many, only to have bidding chances on so few.  Lenders are interested bidders now too because if people are not smart enough or are too stubborn to sell out willingly, lenders have no problem bidding at the indebted amount and then flipping units back to market for sizeable profits.  Important to keep your eye on these things though, because if the posted reo lists ever do start to swell in the specific area researched, that&#039;s how you know housing value is unraveling. This is the kind of research where one my also be able to infer data for a certain region as having better or worse ability to be resilient to economic forces, the actual foreclosure and repossession ratios here vs there and point in time past vs current.  I remember 15 years ago everything on the list moved all the way to the reo pipeline over multiple years, so much so they could not even get sold at short or auction, these units went all the way back to the lender whom just liquidated and took massive write downs, they were all in the reo section of MLS.  Many do not realize that in order for a unit to get to MLS as a defaulted unit, there has already been multiple purchase opportunities in between.   

Did you know that we are standing by to pay you &#039;an equivalent of market value through our process&#039; and will buy your home for 100% cash?  No appraisal necessary, no commissions, no fees, close on your schedule!  That was fun research but it went nowhere.]]></description>

Based on my extensive research I have come to  different conclusions than you regarding truth in these instances.  The difference between me and much of left is that, I want to protect your right to express your opinion, whereas, much of the left wants the cancel my freedom of expression; and even make it a crime to disagree with them.  This is their version of tolerance.  When I read Orwell several years, I viewed it as a nightmare.  Newer knew it would be a playbook that the left embraces.

Our justice system prevails. Anyone can sue! A judge can refuse the case or accept it. &quot;Us, the public has to defend ourselves, otherwise greater injustice will take over.
That is the letter of the law.

Well thanks for that.  Read the IVPI document front to back.  It was an entirely better proposal which people put serious effort into.  And the industry did try and adopt the valuation pressure hotline, but lenders immediately abused it and sadly was shut down.  It&#039;s never too late to adopt a clearinghouse approach though.  Then; given the volume of complaints, per the working re link at the bottom of that post, these amcs are so bold to claim any credibility when 3 out of 4 appraisers nationally refuse to work for them.  They have no business advising anyone on appraisal industry policies.  I&#039;m not clear on what you want clarification on.  It&#039;s just a lot of information all the time and speed reading helps.  Sure you want to punch out disrespectful commentary to me?  I did no such thing to you.  Want to play a game?]]></description>
