My New Blog

Hello to All

Its January 2024 Now and as previously predicted, the loan mortgage rates will continue to drop to lower levels as we get closer to the November 2024 election.

I continue the new year with new requests for appraisal assignments for Estates, Trusts, Divorce, Date of Death and Retroactive Reports. These type of Non Lender work Assignments are actually several pages longer as I include MLS Client Pages for each comparable sale in the report.

Do other appraisers do this to their reports?

No, Not many, as it is a lot more work, but I like for the reader to have a well written report for their use for a legal purposes. 

Additionally, I include in the appraisal report an MLS CMA with a radius of 1-2 miles and the actual search parameters used to create the report. Then I export an entire years of data surrounding the subject property to create a unique report to the subject property with 8-11 statistical charts and scatter graphs showing trendlines for a reader to made sense of the data in the report.

Side by side, clients have remarked "there is a huge difference" in comparing my reports with statistical data to another appraisal report without the added analysis.

I am always available by phone or email for your real estate needs.
