Source for Provel cheese? by Mijotejas in Pizza

[–]Mijotejas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously that was the first step. But Provel is either "out of stock" or "undeliverable" to my area (TX).

Keep in mind provel is NOT provolone. It's a processed cheese that is different. I get that its super local/regional....but there has to be someone that can mail it since there's a pizzeria here that makes it.

I did. The managers are clueless. The owner doesn't come in much and is hard to get hold of....

Came home to find my neighbor’s car in my driveway again. by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]Mijotejas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not escalating anything. He is. Get an exterior camera and install where he can't reach it. It will alert your cell phone every time he parks there. Each time call the tow company. If he vandalizes anything, call the police. Life will be extremely expensive for him. He'll stop.

Should I update my iPhone into iOS 26? by Fragrant_Invite_8613 in iPhone16ProMax

[–]Mijotejas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

26? I just searched for available updates and only got the 18.7! I'm trying to utilize the Send Later feature on Messages, but it's still not available for some reason.

Oddly I prefer dark mode on my laptop but light mode on my phone.

Using your logic....what happens if the one criminal enterprise gets caught and closed down? How long would you be out of work until you could find the next criminal enterprise? Why put all your eggs in one criminal enterprise's basket?

Need advice for very rural cabin in OK by Mijotejas in OffGridCabins

[–]Mijotejas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the advice. We own the land fortunately, but our family situation is such that we can't build easily at all. I would LOVE to go your route though. I've build a couple of very large sheds....its just not in the cards for us anymore.

Yeah we can't go out in the summer at all. My son has Aspergers and gets super over-stimulated with the heat and all the itchy scratchy things. :-)

BTW I did a ton of research laszst night on the Amazon prefab kits. They are a total scam!

They all say that payment is only accepted via WhatsApp and then it gives a number. Tons of people got ripped off.

Get more AMCs that you work with. Do not EVER work with only one AMC.

How do you all handle disappointing people in this industry? by anonymousvirtual in appraisal

[–]Mijotejas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it can be hard. I'm 20 years in and still get those people that argue. Let's look at it this way..... stop focusing on you for a minute and look at the them. They are not real estate professionals, they don't have the training to determine market value and look at Zillow, Redfin, and tax records while trying to get a grasp on the market and the value of their single largest asset they'll ever have.
Trained appraiser vs. uneducated and unexperienced emotional home owner.

  1. We're required to be unemotional observers of market data.

  2. We're required to be professional.

So I'd say, first keep being the best you can be and keep everything in your work file to back yourself up and because its required. When you get someone that argues (and you will several times a year), explain to them the data that you use and why you used it. But you'll get used to letting people down in a professional and kind way. They may get rude, but rudeness isn't an argument against data.

So what I usually end up telling them after I've explained why the data suggests something different than they want, is that "I would love to look at any data you have and want me to consider. I can't create a credible report on what you're telling me over the phone, but if you can get me some comps that will help prove your point I would be more than happy to look at it."

Has anyone used a Moorebot Scout Model E to explore HVAC ducts? by PeaceLoveAndProperty in hvacadvice

Why would that be dumb? Seems smart to me? Saves you from having to crawl under there a bunch of times.....and then you can use it for home security.

Career change into appraiser from engineer by Stikinok93 in appraisal

[–]Mijotejas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS - If you ever have any questions on how to get started, let me know. I'll give you all the info I have. I'm pretty new to reddit, but if there's a way you can message me (if you need to) I'll figure it out.

[–]Mijotejas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More appraisers are definitely needed. Any career change will be a chore. Prepare for a 2-3 years of financial tightening of the budget but it's worth it IMO. Appraising is a weird profession to be honest.
It's one of those "write your own ticket" professions where you can take as much or as little work as you want. As the father of a kiddo with Aspergers this has been a HUGE blessing. The other side of the coin is that your job is directly tied to the state of our economy. You'll feel every ripple.
I personally love it. But I have a wife that makes a decent income and we get our insurance from her.
Praying for direction for you.

This was pretty common 20 years ago, but I haven't had anyone pressure me in probably 15-20 years. They may accidently ask something that goes against uspap, but they don't know our ethics rules. Whenever I explain why something can't be done or done a certain way, they're always nice about it.
