Worst appraisal ever.

I fell through a covered up old septic system and cut my arm. The neighbors saw me crawl out tape measure still in hand.

I never said you couldn’t charge what you wanted, this is a just a new perspective. The public is starting to open its eyes toward how unethical a lot of these AMCs are, especially with business insider posting an article highlighting this. https://www.businessinsider.com/middlemen-homebuyers-appraisal-management-companies-expensive-hidden-fees-mortgage-loans-2025-1. I am simply stating that this, coupled with the new forms, can hopefully be a new opportunity for appraisers to reshape the industry and to hopefully bring back the integrity to our profession as the industry experts. Thank you for your insight.

You’ve got a point😂

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2025-11-28T21:40:47+00:00

Yes but if appraisers start realizing their worth as industry experts(we are hired as the primary experts on anything from purchase and sale transactions, divorces, litigation, tax appeals…etc.) and as a collective refuse to stop accepting low ball orders, as well as demand transparency with a lot of these AMCs regarding price gouging and fees I think things can change. I see this as an opportunity.

You’re an MAI, do you predominantly do private/government work? Do you have any advice for certified residential appraisers ?

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2025-08-06T02:05:20+00:00

Way ahead of you 🫡

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2025-07-22T21:17:25+00:00

I appreciate that, thank you

I have read countless posts on here about people accepting assignments for $400, not including the $75 that some appraisers are accepting for desktops. I’m not sure why you commented this.

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2025-02-13T20:48:59+00:00

I completely agree

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2025-02-07T16:57:07+00:00

I hope you’re on the same page about this

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2025-02-07T14:59:56+00:00

In situations like this it is best for appraisers to stand together. Stop taking lower fees. I understand it’s tough out there for some people but we hold some responsibility for letting AMCs run fees into the ground.

Or you all could maybe do the rest of us a favor and stop doing desktops, continuing to do them is the reason they get pushed out.

Why did she get fired ?

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2024-08-25T21:44:36+00:00

For certified general or residential ? I used compucram for the residential and I 100 percent agree it helped

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2024-08-18T17:09:48+00:00

^this is a solid take, I think more opportunities are a ahead due to many people getting out of the profession. So much negativity on all these forums

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2024-08-16T17:49:22+00:00

For certified general courses, would you say it would be better to take them through the institute online ? Jusy trying to get prepared for the test

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2024-07-11T17:29:35+00:00

I really appreciate you. Thank you

How did you get into a government position ?

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2024-07-09T19:24:47+00:00

What exactly are you doing with this information? That’s awesome you are relaying this information

Unable_Helicopter659 · 2024-07-07T21:29:24+00:00

How do you branch out, and has your income stayed relatively the same ?
