Same Old Flaws, Do We Ever Learn?

[Terrel L. Shields]

Doesn't say much about mentoring nor CE.

And they say PAREA is the training regimen that's broken...

 

[TerryRohrer]

At what point does the appraiser have any culpability? None of the above is the fault of training, that is simply lazy asss stupidity, and that cannot be "trained" out of anyone except by their clients or, god forbid, the idiots who are charged with regulating appraisal licenses. I will be the penalty for the above is a pittance. The Appraisal of Real Estate has been around since the 1950s. Appraising Residential Properties has been around since the 1980s. Henry Harrison's books began appearing in the early 1970s. Today, there are billions of pages of information on real estate appraising free for the taking. There are excuses for the deficiencies in the OP, but there are no valid reasons that are not solely the fault of the appraiser who committed them.

Of itself, an error or omission does not prove incompetency or a lack of training.

If someone knows how to do something and they don't do it then what that amounts to is that they didn't work to their own competency. THAT is far more common in appraisal practice than "nobody ever showed me and despite my years of experience I was incapable of learning it on my own".

On the contrary, if one is not appropriately trained, then how would one know how to perform credibly. Of course, from the information given, it is impossible to discern whether the culprit is ignorance or indolence.

That was the point I was making. Unless there's a confession from the individual that they never learned how to do these things there's effectively no way a state appraisal board could make that distinction, either.

Wasn't responding to you.

Apologies

 

[chad hampton]

Should have stated what was done right in the appraisal. List might have been shorter

Did they spell their name right at least?
