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 Retired Appraiser. Your inability to understand why the appraisal profession is necessary to save, to protect the very fundamentals of checks and balances incorporated alongside independent small businesses. You’ll see how the absence of these safeguards affects your family, and entire communities in the future. Just wait.
In reply to steve. Thank you for the vote of confidence but I’m not the one. I do not want to be an appraiser anymore and would not recommend this career to anyone. Only by a string of very lucky circumstances am I hanging on. The fight for the entire appraisal industry happened in the GSE space. And that fight appears to be lost. Nobody wants me in charge.

In reply to Mark Hastert. something must be missing.we hear of unions trying to form in coffee shops, hotels, uber and others on a regular basis…big unions are there to help with organizing…it would come with a cost but i think most appraisers would rather give a few dollars for dues rather then hundreds to AMCs.
In reply to Retired Appraiser. The statement justifying the fee paid to unions was; That’s less then what amc’s take out of one appraisal fee. The catch 22 is; Because amc’s have restrained our trade, we don’t have that income source in the first place. Half of nothing. Is still nothing.

In reply to Mark Hastert. Define “sizeable” Have they presented their case in detail to appraisers and informed appraisers as to what they can expect in the form of action? I have yet to run across their action plan much less their statistical projection of success.
Increasingly, founders are turning to convertible instruments when raising the initial rounds of capital for their companies. These agreements allow deals to be struck without (directly) negotiating a valuation, expediting the process by setting aside key terms for the future. There are two main categories of convertible instrument: Convertible Notes, a form of debt with interest payments until the point of conversion, and SAFEs which are quite literally simple agreements for future equity.

In reply to steve. Appraisers have always been prohibited or discouraged from discussing fees because of “price fixing”., But I rest assured the AMC do this because they are not under the same antitrust fixing guidelines. Appraiser have been too afraid to address this topic because of antitrust rules … Agreed there is something missing. The ability to openly discuss fees and compensation.

The purchase price will be split , with 80% paid at closing and the remaining 20% settled upon project completion, defined as when the plant meets the agreed-upon terms and conditions.
In reply to Mark Hastert. Appraisers may be willing to pay that IF they were certain that the union would move forward and do something. We’ve been hearing about unions offering to help for years but nothing happens. I suggest that the unions interested in collecting those fees present their plan upfront to appraisers and tell them precisely what they can do to assist.
