Nope, but thanks for your inquiry comradeDo you have any bias that could be in conflict with an independent appraiser?

So your business is not operated for the purpose of making profit? I guess that explains a lot.Danny's company is for Profit only. This is key.
The first Fannie pilot of bifurcated started in June or July, 2017, so once again your premise is wrong.Fannie's pilot must be a bust. It shouldn't take 3 years
Danny's company is for Profit only.
Why would the 3 time chair of the ASB be here.
It is better then Frank the brothel man and Dodd friend of Mozilo.
Insinuations to the contrary, Danny participated here on this forum prior to closing up his fee shop and taking the Chief Appraiser job. I think he also followed the goings on here on the Forum while he was sitting on the ASB.
RE agents are value oriented but see value from a sales point of view rather than unbiased evaluation point of view. Will an appraiser looking at a third party's notes/sketch/photos get the same value "read" on the property they would have had they walked it/toured it themselves? Add n that an appraiser will miss out on the feedback /ability to question property with an owner, agent, builder or other party at inspection.
My bold above. I know I'm like 90 pages late here, but great thought. I truly feel that the interior inspection IS appraisal work. Spotting the nuances a particular home has in your particular market, and the finer points of condition and quality that make a home more or less comparable to another IMHO takes hundreds or thousands of actual inspections. It is as much art as science, if not more so. Anyone who thinks that the inspection part of their assignment can be done just as well by anyone on the street with a 40 hour training course in ANSI and the basics of housing construction is probably over-valuing their services to begin with.
If you have been diagnosed with cancer, do you want to go to the first year resident (a doctor by any definition) or one who has treated thousands of cancer patients? They are both doctors, so what's the difference? No, I'm not comparing the two fields--far from it. Just point out that...
Experience. Counts.

My views on the so called "hybrid" service are documented in a report that was published circa 2007 - long before the "hybrid" phrase had even been coined. So, while one might claim that my current position is somehow influencing what I write about this topic, a little Google would show what I write now is entirely consistent with what I wrote long before taking the "corporate gig."Thanks for the reminder GH, as it is a fool to think that Danny's posts on the forum, since he went over to the Chief Appraiser job, could or would represent the interests of the independent fee appraiser, who make up the majority of the AF's roster.
