Episode 093 - The Comparable Is Wrong

Don’t let the episode title fool you, we aren’t talking about using the “wrong” comparable, we mean the comparable being used has wront information. Nothing is more frustrating than finding comparables properties and then finding out the properties you chose were not listed correctly or accurately.

In this episode, Brian talks about how to work through that issue, and explains some of what an appraiser must do to satisfy a lender. Don’t worry though, I’m sure the comparable is also wrong too.
