Most of my time wasters seem to be collect appraisals. These appraisals come from the lower end clients who deal with B & C borrowers. Value always seems to be a larger issue with these appraisals. Sometimes the loan has not been fully sold before the appraisal is ordered. The appraiser is in essence being used to help the client close the deal. Most every cancellation I have is on a collect assprisal, and the cancellation comes after the research has been done. On the rare occassion that I'm stood up, you can bet that its on a collect at the door.
Sometimes collect at the door is essential when dealing with a distant, unfamiliar client. I'm about to come to the conclusinn that the best answer is not to deal with distant unfamiliar clients. Local, reputable clients who pay in reasonable time is the way to go. After the boom, my tune could change.
