Episode 121 - My Way is the Right Way! Featuring Cate Waggoner-Lee There is more than one way to skin a cate (what a gross analogy). Your way might work, but guess what, mine probably does too. Don't get so ingrained in your position that you miss another perspective. Adjustments, comparables, and value are subjective, so don't get mad when someone thinks something different than you. It is okay to agree to disagree. SHOW NOTES 03:10 – Change your attitude. Cate is the softer side of Brian. 04:10 – Not just one value on a property. 05:45 – Appraisers and agents tend to agree there is a range of value. 07:10 – There are many properties that are comparables. Your comparables are not the only one. 08:15 – If you think your comparables are good comparables, explain why you think they are the most comparable. 10:25 – How do you present your information to an appraiser or to an agent? "I'm trying to help you out." 12:00 – More than one way to come up with an adjustment. 13:35 – Grammar police correcting Brian. 15:25 – Is there ever a time when a lender will "require" one way to come up with an adjustment? 17:45 – Lenders, this message is for you too: there is more than one way to review and underwrite an appraisal report. 19:45 – Just because I'm right, doesn't mean you are wrong.
