"Old" 2005 form

[Ken B]

Ken,

I agree wholeheartedly that appraisers should not "jump on" any bandwagon. It is imperative that each one of us know and understand exactly what it is that we are signing. Including every word on any pre-printed form that we consider using.

"But I always heard..." is not a valid decision making tool.

The small print has a way of coming back to bite ya if you don't pay attention to it.

The "form" is irrelevant to the communication of such an appraisal UNLESS for some unknown reason the client required that form.

Agreed, but I would hesitate to use an outdated form containing built-in verbiage that is not applicable to current practice.
