    Car insurance is an integral part of the insurance budget. There are a lot of variables that cause the rates to increase or decrease.

    Here's another great idea that the gurus are using to create high profit online products.It's called an 'ask page' and is designed to let the potential customers tell you what they want to buy.For example: If you were going to write an ebook about growing vegetables, why not put up a page, asking your potential customer what would be t
    Now, to be fair…. there was some seller paid closing costs (just under 3%). But, the contract was below the list price of $232,000!

    Typical deal. Realtor writes up contract close to list price with seller paids. All is good in approval land until the appraisal comes in really low. Then, yep, you guessed it, the listing agent calls me to tell me they have another appraiser who will be able to come in higher. They found some comps that were priced higher.

    Now, lets not even get into the discussion about why you can’t use new construction for an appraisal comp on existing sales. I am sure that Meg Stewart can discuss all the ins and outs of that. But for ANY Realtor, regardless of which side of the transaction you are on, to suggest

    I blogged about this a while back, Don’t Be That Realtor
    actually got all of 3 comments (one of them was my own comment). It seems that either this topic is a sore subject… or maybe it is just so darn ridiculous that no one thinks it is necessary to mention. But it seems that it IS worthy of mention…. Because it keeps happening!

    My first notice of this was when the appraiser left me a message. 30 minutes later I get a phone call from listing agent wanting to use new appraiser. My first phone call was to the referring Buyer’s Agent and she was rolling on the floor laughing. She would NEVER agree to a new appraiser. Besides, the current appraiser is very well respected around town and unless there are some FSBO comps they missed the Listing Agent will have to explain himself to the sellers.
