I've been appraising over 10 years and still use a 100' tape for measuring, and have a wheel in the trunk that I use on occasion if I need it. I can measure almost any property pretty fast and accurately, so I've never felt the need to splurge and by a laser.
I have no doubt that some walls would just be easier with a laser, and am finally ready to stop being so cheap and buy one.
With there being so many options and brands, I'm not sure what to get. Distos are outrageously price IMO. And there are so many great reviews for products that cost significantly less, I'm not sure what to buy.
As with any purchase, I'm looking to get the most out of what I spend, and if shelling out $400 is actually worth it, and will save me time and money in the long run, I'm willing to do it.
So what say you, fellow appraisers? What are you using that you like, and why? What have you used that you didn't like, and why? Specific brands and models would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!
