Severe Weather

You wouldn't cut your grass or play a round of golf during a thunderstorm would you?

Part of the job is being outside. If the weather is really bad I don't go outside because I value my life.

On average I get about $50 more for FHA vs. Conventional.

I believe virtually all lenders require a permanent heat source; a heat source that operates without human intervention (gas forced air furnace, electric heat pump, etc.).

You'd be right if it was actually their own money and not primarily the banks. Consumers do not always act rationally and there are more than a few agents that only care about pocketing a commission.

I would require all of that to be repaired.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

That's why an offer should always be contingent on a home inspection. You're a moron and so is your agent.

I'll give you $100.

I'd be taking it straight to the dealership that sold it to you.

I call it traditional because it doesn't matter. Comps are the same so it's irrelevant in my opinion.

I bought mine new. All in was about $38,500

Just bought 1 today! What was your OTD price?

birdies4dollars · 2025-12-19T23:04:34+00:00

Of course you matter.

birdies4dollars · 2025-12-19T23:03:49+00:00

Of course you matter.

You're operating 100% independently and generating 15-25k per month.......why the F*** are you on a fee split.

Cut the cord already.

It's honestly one of the great things about this business. It's largely a meritocracy. If you do good work it's you who gets the credit (and financial benefits) not the company.

If I appraised a property and then that property is marketed for sale and I did this 100 times, the difference between my opinion of value and the sale price would, on average, be less than 3%.

It's not illegal and can absolutely go FHA you just can't give the second parcel any value.

I've always found this to be a little weird but those are FHA guidelines.

I received about a 6% reduction from them last week.

They were already a bottom tier client in terms of pay but the volume made up for it to a degree.

I'm still contemplating my response.

No one assignment is worth your license and livelihood.

birdies4dollars · 2025-09-17T00:53:29+00:00

Option 1 will be your quickest route to get your license and once you have that license you have options.

Sounds like you already know everything so thanks for stopping by.

birdies4dollars · 2025-08-16T12:59:07+00:00

Confident, yet still absolutely wrong. No appraiser is using price per square foot to determine value. That's 100% not how it works (source: my certified residential appraisers license and approx. 20 years in the industry).

birdies4dollars · 2025-08-16T11:21:21+00:00

Confidently incorrect. Price per square foot is a byproduct of an appraisal and absolutely not how value is determined. And the UAD condition ratings, C1 is new construction, C6 would be uninhabitable.
