Haven't been able to post here in a while.
Suddenly have a rash of pre-paid (by consumers) appraisals whereby the report was NEVER delivered. Do you all understand how hard it is to get paid for completed appraisal work? Now I have licensees taking payment and producing nothing for private individuals. Well...good luck with that. That nonsense has to stop. And...it will. This is a fine-type offense and a website sanction. So, by all means...keep it up.
Believe it or not; I still have licensees that refuse to cooperate with the Division by providing the report we request. Again...good luck with that. Aside from a slam-dunk ethics charge I merely subpoena the lender for your report. I really don't understand this strategy.
Again...boilerplate crapola ends up on my desk in the form of a complaint. For instance...a simple 2 bedroom condo with 1.5 baths...ends up reported as having 2.5. How do I know? I got in the other day. That was easy. Then...the sketch has 4 bedrooms and only 1 bath. Say what? This is Settlement Conference stuff. If you want to spend $20 to park downtown...then two hours explaining this to a board member and possibly paying a lawyer on top of it...keep it up...just do what you're supposed to do. Geez.
