That is fine with me. Every man for himself. As for me, I am not selling my soul in order to get appraisal orders. Just not going to do. I have been appraising before 1991 when licensing came into being. From the get-go, brokers and lenders chose the appraisers who would do their bidding. NAR, AI NCPAC have never done anything to protect the appraiser or the public. Several posters on here have gone to work for some of the agencies that are killing us. They are camera chasers who love the limelight and enjoy the regulator life. I have made a decent living since 1991. I have never wavered from doing ethical work and refusing to bow down to anyone. Since 1991 I have had six board complaints because I would not do unethical appraisals. ALL SIX were dismissed for no cause. I did not have to take a class, I did not get a warning...I was exonerated based on my work file and the facts. I can'r compete with appraisers with saleable ethic. Can't and won't. Every man (or woman) is on their own.
