I prefer people that shill for the tens of thousands of working appraisers in the profession rather than corporate interests of a few. But I’m sure the hedge funds appreciate the help. Maybe they think one day they’ll be invited to the party on15th street.
And some of you want to know why appraisers don’t use their real name? Are you being serious? Get on social media and LinkedIn, it’s full of appraisers who use their own name and speak their mind and then talk about how they’ve been blacklisted from the business. I assume most of them have wealthy spouses and didn’t really need this job. when you speak about the profession, you risk losing your career. That’s the system some of you defend.
I believe people will get what’s coming to them in the end.
What about competition between people if fees were separated in the market place.Pointing out the fact that it isn't REVAAs role or TAFs role to protect the fee appraisers from the outcome of competition in the marketplace isn't shilling. It's just being honest and objective. Facts don't shill.
