Sometimes we are our own worse enemies.  As appraisers, we are shooting ourselves in the foot if we continue to run down our peers.  It is time to put away the weapons and pull out the olive branches.  

In our second episode of Appraiser Stories, we talk to Mark Buhler, a Certified Residential Appraiser in California.  He has been at this a few years (since the 80's) and has a few stories to tell.  

Have you ever wanted to hire a virtual assistant, but do not even know where to begin?  In this minisode, you will learn how to do it and avoid common mistakes.  

This week, Dustin shares one of his biggest principles of prosperity; working ON your business rather than always working IN your business.  It is one of those activities that has polvaulted his success as a real estate appraiser.  Join him and learn more about OINII.

Dave Towne joins me in a lively discussion around C&R Fees.  What do we need to do to get the amount we are worth?  

Ann O'Rourke from Appraisal Today joins us once again to get us all caught up on the latest appraiser news.  This week, we talk about:

John Dingman, Chief Appraiser at AppraisalTek, is with us for a second week.  If you missed last week's episode, you may want to catch it first before listening to this one.  John was good enough to come on for a second week and answer your questions about AMCs.  

Have you ever wanted to talk bluntly with a Chief Appraiser at an AMC?  Dustin did and here it is.  Thanks to John Dingman and AppraisalTek for allowing this to take place.  

I see this question quite often from appraisers. Can you use the subject itself as a comparable sale and put it in the grid? Today we tackle that question and not only come up with an answer philosophically, but we also have the answer as to how Fannie Mae feels about it. Welcome to our first ever Appraiser Coach Podcast Minisode.
