I find it hard to believe that the attorney is going to pore through your ALL 18 reports

You have done three total reports for attorneys over a 30 year period and you are second guessing what a real estate attorney will do?

She will go through them all because she wants to find mistakes or questions before the other side does. You have absolutely no credible experience in this type of work but yet you question it.

Danny Wiley is hanging out in this thread and I am sure he can attest that when he did legal work there were attorneys who read every last word of his reports.

There are some attorneys who know more about appraisal than some appraisers.

Given the vile that has been spewed Joan's way on this topic, I have a couple of follow up questions:

1. Is there an expectation that appraisers will do disaster inspections for free?
2. What is the feeling about appraisers who have suddenly doubled or tripled their rates for disaster inspections?

It is a Free Enterprise system, don't see a problem with Joan providing leads for appraisers in a time of need, it becomes a business choice if you want the work. As for the providing emails for a Fee, right place, right time - everyone hits on that at some point in their life, if not will help you find a Tin Cup.
DW: #1 - LOL this crew
#2 - hmmmm

The attorneys I worked with involved varied in knowledge level. As you point out, some are extremely well versed and will do exactly what you described - they will try to pick the report apart before the opposing counsel has the same opportunity.

There were also some who just looked at the bottom line and trusted that the rest was in order. They really had no choice because they were not well versed in appraisal practice.

You notice they will not reply to me. What is the annual due for your membership? What benefits do you receive from the dues? Are you JT sock puppet?

Will your attorney ask you to show support why you didn't make a bedroom adjustment?
Why you made or didn't make a half bathroom adjustment?
Why you made or didn't make a garage adjustment?
How you decided on $/sf adjustment?
For all 18 reports????
I doubt it.....

Dues for what?

I am no one's puppet. I posed the questions i posed because I wanted to see how consistent the responses would be with regarding to profits from disaster inspections.

Your form driven mind fails to grasp that there are alternatives to a conventional grid, most court appraisers avoid as many adjustments as possible, yes we explain out adjustments, and, no, I have no big book of adjustments and never have had.

That was my experience too. Some attorneys are excellent clients and some are a pain and some try to influence your opinion of value (either subtly or not so subtly) to help their client's case. I found attorney clients to be generally good, but like every other class of clients, some are good clients and others are not good clients.

You need to think outside of your little box or quit stalking me or both.

There are only two houses involved, one on 74 acres and one on ??? acres. A half bath adjustment wouldn't even make a ripple in the overall value.

There are a total 23 reports for three different attorneys. One of them will read every word and I am guessing the other one will too. The third one I don't know so can't say.

Given you know little about how all of this works, the divorce attorneys typically know little about appraisals but sometimes will hire the appraiser to review the other side's appraisal so that they can look for things to shoot holes in. Divorces in Michigan very rarely go to actual court and are most of the time settled in mediation. If it does go to a judge the judge is usually annoyed and just places the value right down the middle.

These cases are not for divorce.

These will not be written on forms.
