In reply to Lindsey. Buy a ghost key, or at least always copy the reo key’s so you eventually end up with a big fat roll of possible keys that may work. Keep a disposable freebie plastic card to slide past the lock, those work well on back doors with smaller framing. As the appraiser, you have permission to be there and get into that vacant home.

The old adages that "cash is king" and "you can’t spend profits" still hold true today. But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l

In reply to Todd Redington. That was a fun read, thanks. HOAs may not, after July23, 2023, create governing documents and declarations that effectively prohibit the construction, development, oruse of additional housing units as required in HB 1110 (middle housing) and HB 1337 (accessory dwelling units). What upstanding law makers. They say HOA rules shall not be effected, so if an hoa says no more than one unit, that rule stands.

If your business has significant inventory on its balance sheet, it can be costly. The carrying costs of inventory include warehousing, salaries, insurance, taxes, and transportation, as well as depreciation and shrinkage. Plus, tying up working capital in inventory detracts from other strategic investment opportunities.

In reply to Tom. LOL, gotcha. I’m on the panel, but rest assured, I have no means to effect what is, or is not charged to the Vet’s. I’m also not aware of how one could impact the fees one way or another. If you ask me, we are providing a service to the Vet that lets them know if the house is actually worth what they are paying. I have helped several vet’s pay less for a house that simply was not worth it.

In reply to Eric Kretz. There might be a few good amc’s out there. After clearing through something like a hundred of them over several years time, basically the entire TAVMA list at the time, I gave up. I kept trying for a while but never once ran across an amc with a fixed rate billing for their side services, which over time became my top priority, to escape the financial incentive to drive my fee down.
