Need help finding Software to do Market / Time Adjustments

And the competent appraisers get flagged by CU because their actual neighborhood analysis doesn't agree with what their "peers" do

What are you talking about?
I never get flagged for neighborhood analysis.
Some appraisers need to stop putting generic neighborhood comments.

Thread 'Appraisal Institute Controversy Part 2'

Sep 24, 2024

Someone just closed down the 'Cindy Chance' thread. Was that the AI, Jim Amorin or Cindy Chance?

Criticism is exactly what we need in the profession!

Anyway, here are my comments I was about to post on the previous "Cindy Chance" thread:

Despite Amorin's intellectual limitations, he does make some good points. In particular, concerning the dumbing down of educational standards. That needs to be reversed.

I would add, that despite Cindy Chance's pro residential-appraisal rhetoric, she lacks critical knowledge of appraisal and the STEM (science, technology, engineering and...

I'm not sure what your point is here with the quote of my post. If I had to guess, you are in love with CC and are pissed off at my criticism of her. Although, I don't know. To me, she is a strange non-entity that is kind of like your anomalous data instances. But who knows, - we can only guess.

Not sound advice for competent appraisers or those aspiring to be competent, but certainly good enough for many!

We will have the same answer, but my explanation will be 9 and 1/2 pages less circumlocution, 3D stick graphs, and color coded bullet points.

I put you on ignore, so as to reduce the probability of insulting your intelligence. But, it doesn't work all that great.

But look, I am not the only one complaining about your obvious ineptitude. It seems at times like you can't generate one post without some statement that is so dxxx, so obviously dxxx it looks like your are walking around on stage acting like the dxxx comedian or actor in a solo one-man show. Really, it looks almost intentional and rather disgusting. E.g.: "Well, do you think it is possible that the world could fall on our head, the way things are going?" Well, Fernando, the answer is: ONLY. ON YOUR HEAD!

I'll delete this in one hour if no one responds to it (which will make it impossible to delete) - and if I don't forget.

Or, maybe I will just change the word to x's. Yes, that is a better idea.

You get too emotional and don't make sense. You should listen to what you wrote.

I do a lot of appraisals in Bert's hometown.
Some of the tract neighborhoods are the easiest to appraise. No need to use a regression model.
Try some more difficult areas like the hills in Belmont and tell me how your MARs work out.

I use my experience in the market and published MLS data.

To poster. I have played with excell and made some niffty charts with info. But to do a non linear time chart requires an experienced excell background. It took the spark guy months to do it properly. He sold spark to tracts and i believe works there now.

So no, after reading terrel's comment on doing it i was ready to jump the ecell cliff.

We just had a straight up linear time line for 10 years, but many appraisers ignored that adjustment.

You can get enough of a feel from you MLS for a linear. Have you looked at what the realtors put out under market news, if your MLS has it. But a non linear time line needs a program that is made for appraisers.

A linear , which is not always a straight line in one direction. can also be broken down into quarterly or six-month segments ( bolstered by other evidence ) to make rising market condition adjustments for the first half of the year and none for the stable second half of the year ( for example )

I reject the idea of monthly different adjustments except in extreme cases, because that is about price and not about value, there is no measurable trend found in one mere month, and any one month can show lower or higher prices than the other months and one or two sales can influence that.
