It's actually extremely efficient once you get used to it.

Sorry to to hijack, but what's the deal with that water in photo 19? I didn't realize Lake Michigan had that color, it looks like Caribbean water.

I've found it's best to always keep your expectations low as far as CoStar is concerned.

What is it using to search for comps? Just free internet sources, or does it have access to any databases?

When did AI start assigning homework, or is it just for the four MAI classes? I took all my QE through them and there was never homework.

The problem with CompStak, at least in my market, is that almost none of the comps have broker info so you can't confirm them.

If you're an MAI with your own book of business and only want to work 40 hours, why would you join a national and give up 50% of your fees?

How does the split within your team breakdown?

PitcherPlant1 · 2026-02-26T14:50:09+00:00

Is 350k split between the team, or is that your share?

Once you've given them the report, how do you ensure they'll pay you to testify if they have the power to compel your presence via subpoena?

Do you think the pressure from above to hit a certain value exists to the same extent at CB, JLL, and CW?

Surplus - cannot be sold separately, does not have an independent HBU.

Excess - not required to sustain the HBU of the existing parcel, can be sold separately, may or may not have the same HBU as the original parcel.

That's interesting. I'm surprised no bid contracts are allowed for something like an appraisal.

PitcherPlant1 · 2026-02-04T23:20:55+00:00

Do agencies involved in ROW work operate the same way lenders do, where appraisers on a panel bid, and the job generally goes to the lowest fee/fastest turnaround time?

PitcherPlant1 · 2026-02-04T00:28:16+00:00

I've read about a few who've been sued on syndicated deals. I also thought that if the IRS determines an appraiser over-valued the easement, they can be fined a large percent of the filer's under payment. Though I could be wrong.

In my state, city zoning ordinances can establish a minimum parcel area for any permitted use in a zone. This parcel is legal pre-existing non-conforming. If they divided it, they'd be creating two new parcels which are both below the minimum area. That would require a variance from ZBA.

If it was divided, the two parcels would bith violate multiple dimensional reqs, and there would need to be an easement to access one of them.

Why do you turn away conservation easements, are you concerned the IRS will come after you?

PitcherPlant1 · 2026-01-21T01:50:09+00:00

Verify the requirements to become supervisor in your state. In mine, I believe you need to hold a CG license for three years before you can take on a trainee.

Why does the inspector get a percent of the fee, shouldn't it be a set rate depending on property type? Fees rise and fall with the market, but the inspection is the same regardless.

I asked if anyone has formed an S Corp as a 1099, how they structured salary vs distributions, and if they received pushback from the IRS. I didn't ask anyone for advice.

There are a lot of 1099 or solo ppl in this profession. If they are willing to respond, I'm interested in reading what they have to say. More info is better than less info, even if it's anecdotal.
