FNMA Selling Guide Update Pertaining to ANSI Measurement Standard

Old age is going to take out the rest of us shortly anyway. I could have stopped a long time ago. I do feel bad for the younger appraisers who are not prepared for the appraiser apocalypse.

Wow, you just don't get the point of such simple commentary. Be obtuse if you want to.

Go on pretending to be professional while you're extorted on every front.

Buy the books.

Oh... I get the point. I am just tired of appraisers whining about changes in the industry. If you don't want to be an appraiser, don't. If you think the industry is heading in the wrong direction, become an activist and do something about it. If you want things to stay the same forever.... get real.

Whining about whining appraisers. But you're still reading them. There is a difference between self inflicted AMC work whining and having new rules set. The best whining to hear is the exiting of many appraisers, maybe myself with the new uad3, although i have switched to an alternative income stream.

The 'rules' for Fannie changed 4 years ago. All they have done is catch up with the terminology used by ANSI. It really is a nothing burger. If you continue to do GSE residential appraisers, you have to do it. Period.

As for reading the Forum, not everyone who posts is a whiner. Sometimes there is something to be learned.

Most appraisers here are at that very old age, where you have a right to complain about everything. I have crossed that line long ago. I learned that from my mother in law.

We think for ourselves... however, we have no power or authority to make our Clients do it the way we want them to.
