I will never understand this? All of my clients send me work within 15 miles from my office.

Maybe someone from a AMC can share why this is?
Maybe because all your clients total a number one and your wife is the banks manager :) LMAO

I wish. I would personally deliver the report..in a big way... ;)

I live on the county line and only cover two counties. Worked out pretty well for me. I realize this doesn't work to well for low density market areas, but for urban and Surburban appraisers, I never understood why one would want to cover multiple counties? Time is money. Same for AMCs....they are graded on turn times too, so why use appraisers in bum xxxx egypt?

Because your client is probably not a AMC -The AMC does not want to get caught in a audit where only one
or two appraisers are getting the majority of work in one small area, They can be accused of not using a real panel where orders are rotated. Actually even for a small bank if a auditor comes in with a bug up his Azzz he may question why orders are only being directed to a few appraisers. Aslo you think you are getting majority of orders but maybe thats just from that one lender . Maybe 10 others are doing work for other lenders in your market area and you have no clue :)
 
Why would an appraiser want to drive 3 hours each way? Between the price of gas and the lost time ( 6 hours total just driving) it makes no sense.
Maybe they arn't and they are using a runner to do the inspection who lives closer.
 
I wonder what the LA guy is doing today? What did he say he was doing at the peak of the market, some bizarre number per month if I remember.

That was then. This is now. But who I feel sorry for are his trainees and new CRs. This is an extra-difficult market to be trying to break into.
 
Yes you should go but I thought you said you were getting married to a women from Thailand ? There is no future in Riverside but more traffic and dirt :)
I'm packing my bags slowly for the Thailand trip. RT airfare increased during the past one month from $850 to $4300.

Wondering if other countries around the world rely upon an appraisal system like here in the USA.
