Geez....and here I thought they wanted to get rid of appraisers.
It appears one would need a class on how to fill this out properly as to not get stipped to death....
A couple of observations...
Page 4, are we going to have to do a cost to cure on every single report for deficient items? For example, if the roof appears to be at the end of its useful life, do I have to estimate what it would cost to replace it?
Page 7, broadband internet available? Come on, you would think one would get rid of the minutia, not add to it.
Page 9, disaster mitigation!? But on your hard hats!
the sketch page seems to be plunked in a rather odd position...
What's front door elevation? Ground level? Accessed by stairs?
Wow...3 pages for the grid! It appears order of operations is out the window. So much for the side by side view in Wintotal. I liked that feature.
Moving on to page 36 (Lol) Cost Approach.....this whole thing reminds me of Microsoft Windows 7 to Windows 10. After looking at the cost approach in all the forms for a couple decades +, you would think they'd keep the format the same. It looks so foreign.
What's with the "cooperative interest, Pro Rata Share Calculation Method" in the opinion of market value section?
Once again, on page 37, there's a section for apparent defects, damages, and deficiencies. We're asked to be a structural engineer and estimate the cost to repair.
I didn't read through the certifications. I also didn't see the C ratings. Are the C ratings gone?
I get what they're trying to do. Instead of the appraiser inserting the sketch, photos, addendum, Etc. in the order they like around the main form, the powers that be are organizing the order in which they want every appraisal that comes in Nationwide to be.
Problem is, it looks as if they did it hungover from partying at 15th Street the night before.
