Looking beyond the downside
As the housing market slows in various parts of the country, appraisers are noticing a slowing in their business too. Communicator Magazine gives several suggestions on how appraisers in slow markets can keep their business growing. One suggestion is to market pre-sale inspections to sellers. These can be used not only to see what needs to be fixed in order to sell a home, but also highlight the property's strengths that might have gone unnoticed. Other suggestions include marketing maintenance inspections or relocation inspections to boost business.
