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

Well written and I agree with 99.9% of what you have written. What I question is – doesn’t the initial fee to the borrower come from the lender? It’s seems to me that the lenders should be sharing the blame along with AMCs. I want to applaud you, specifically, on the bit about appraisers being afraid to speak up/out unless it’s anonymous for fear of their livelihood.
If you ever tire of the hype around tech, industrials private equity might be an ideal hiding spot. Industrials PE has been around for a long time and has always been seen as “stable but boring.” Some would even argue that the first “leveraged buyout” of all time – J.P. Morgan’s acquisition of Carnegie Steel in 1901 – was an industrials private equity deal.
AMC’s were never “well intentioned” They knew what they were doing from the get-go. Thanks to our little buddy Cuomo in New York, lenders can own AMC’s. Now, by its very nature, a lender owning an AMC and making profit off of an appraiser’s back is a fraud on the American public. Oh, they’re supposed to be neutral?
Chicago, IL – July 31, 2024—Oasis Painting & Renovation, a leading Chicago-based provider of residential renovation and maintenance services, has successfully transitioned ownership under the guidance of Sun Acquisitions, to strategic acquirer NuEra Enterprises.

Sorry to bring this up, but you young/younger appraisers here might believe that some day things will get better if you just keep believing. I’ve been doing this 41 years and they’ve only gotten worse. There have been interludes of good times, but they are too brief. The propagandists, including appraisers, will tell you that if you just do this or that, work harder and longer for lesser fees, take another course, integrate DEI, find another matched pair, just push value on this one

Well done! The only thing that I think needs to be added is the LENDER’S part in all of this. AMCs are not required, and the Lenders are failing to do their due diligence and Audit their vendors (AMCs) Lenders are also responsible and need to be held accountable.

A venture capital firm that sued for an appraisal of its investment in FairXchange Inc. is entitled to $10.42 per share, the same as the $330 million deal price that Coinbase Global Inc. offered when it bought the securities exchange startup in 2022, a Delaware vice chancellor ruled Tuesday.
Well done Desiree! Relating to appraisal fee transparency, its also important for the powers to be to understand that even if an AMC is not used by the client we are often charged 5 to 12% for so called technology, platform, or review fees. Meaning, in the case of United Wholesale Mortgage, when they say they pay $555 for a typical appraisal (in San Diego / most expensive city in the US), the actual net to the appraiser is $493.6.
Parties to a Delaware Court of Chancery stockholder suit that challenged a $1.35 billion take-public "blank-check" company merger with Florida-based digital health manager UpHealth Inc. have reached a $7.25 million settlement of all claims, pending court approval, according to an agreement filed Tuesday.
Perfect Desiree. I made the same decision not to work for any AMC and am happier than ever with the job. Private work can be a well paid job with a great deal of client appreciation. It’s a disgrace this hasn’t been stopped by now. Public Trust is a joke these days and no one seems to care. Good job. Thanks for the time and spreading the truth!!!
Stockholders of a blank check company that took sports data company Genius Sports Ltd. public have overcome a bid to spike their Delaware Court of Chancery challenge to the $1.5 billion deal.
