Don’t read too much into it. Appraiser boards nationally now have an amc member. As all amc’s seem to be on board with the hybrid program, those reps will downplay the issue and make sure you don’t lose your license for completing their preferred work products. If corrective action was going to happen, it would have happened already.

Did you ever do divorce work, where the divorcee’s still shared the property. The appraised value is very important to each based on different measure than appraisers use. One meets you at the front door and coaches you the attributes. The other meets you at the back door and tells of the deficiencies. You must believe all !! They are both experts on their own properties.

THIS is truly a bifurcated work you must decide on.

Your client has asked you for a MARKET appraisal or has asked for a quick sale and its November. Do you favor the front door or the back door, do you favor the winter market or look forward to the coming summer. Their is latitude and longitude. Are you a monkey following a specific format or a professional fully explaining your position.

Can you write general value advice on a specific property neither you or your client has viewed.

Is that Trifurcated, just some other nasty word

The best defense is an offense. Let me put this in a different light. Most Res appraisers are one trick Pony’s. Learn more tricks! Make yourself less available to AMC Phone Monkey Dot Com. If your going to sell your soul to Desktoppies and Burp it Up Reports then do it universally. In other words offer that service to ALL potential Clients as opposed to just Big Box Bank’s and the Mtg industry as a whole. You have to develop greater skills sets as an Res Appraiser. Make yourself scarce. Get in a position of saying NO more often to power users of your services. ….We are not in control of our time. Nows the time to gain control more than ever. Just saying!

JUST SAY NO. It’s so simple. We are our own worst enemy. Many hate this but I will say it again. It’s time for appraisers to UNIONIZE. Without a VOICE to represent “we the (appraisal) people” we are screwed.

The Wabash Cannon Ball, served commerce throughout the south, and they are no longer in business. Appraisers, and business people face an always changing world, and education is our only protection. Don’t condemn others practice’s , just make sure you are doing the defensible reports

They only want fast and cheap, not the actual value of the property in context with it’s condition or surroundings and, oh yeah, YOUR credentials to take the fall

You have to be an idiot to do these type of appraisals, if you do you’re signing your own death certificate
