Unveiling the Truth: The Controversial Role of Data Collectors in Real Estate

[Tim Hicks (Texas)]

It’s not really a surprise, when you’re paying somebody $50 to do something, your workforce is going to consist primarily of felons and other various forms of lowlifes. Let’s not pretend that everyone doesn’t know already know that.

But just so you know what these people think of you, when they’re speaking in front of appraisal boards and other regulatory bodies, they refer to professional appraisers as labor

I’m in favor of AMC is getting a background check on their appraisers as often as they want. Of course, like every other company ive ever heard of, they pay for it. I’ve been background checked, fingerprinted, and drug tested for multiple companies in my life. I’ve never paid for it.

If your state already does background checks on its licensed appraisers, the AMCs don't need a stinking background check.

I had a background check when I was licensed. I have also had temporary Secret Service clearance. If that's not good enough..........

Appraising 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?

Actually it was when I was on the road years ago doing concerts. Had to do an appearance by the Pope at an outdoor venue. Set up 3 full size outdoor stages and production. Anyone on site after it was cleared by the Secret Service. Bomb sniffing dogs and all. Had to have Secret Service clearance.

This is how a Professional appraiser looks. Notice She even measures the windows. That's why she makes the big $$

Right..... And where does she get data to extract the market reaction to differences in the sizes of the windows?

More and more people in the industry are catching up to these fraudulent products pushed by the GSEs, Lenders, and AMCs.

THIS WOMAN GETS IT!!!! ONE SMART, PROFESSIONAL REALTOR HERE!!!

What would stop a struggling intern who is paid peanuts from doing these? 75 to 125 bucks would look good?
Who says all the collectors are felons or incompetent. I know some appraisers that still can't get it right.
