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 Brian. [link] [link] _ How does the CFPB share complaint data? We’ll share your complaint with the company so it can review and respond to the issues you’ve described. _ Good luck.

This is very good news for Appraisers, and I say that with caution as someone who recently retired from the profession. I was a research scientist turned appraiser, and spent the previous 20 years in the profession. I prided myself on detailed analysis of complex properties and was always up for a challenge. It became exhausting as I realized that the majority of clients could care less about your detailed analysis and rarely read the comments provided in the report addendum.

Knowing your value is slightly irrelevant when you have 300 starving appraisers willing to undercut your quote. It becomes massively irrelevant when the keys to the ordering system are handed to criminals (AMCs) who use reverse auctions to disperse jobs to the lowest bidder while simultaneously elevating the cost of the appraisal for maximum profit.
