The one thing I hate is when I'm in someone's office fixing their pc when someone else walks by and says......"Whoa <insert name here>, you've changed a lot"........god I can't stand that. If I hear that anymore I swear I will walk in here with a sword and stab them all. 😀
 
These days? Absolutely nothing.

Two more days &amp; I'm outta here, &amp; I'm not doing much work between now &amp; then.

Gee, I didn't know that required maintenece increased value. :roll:

are u a property appraiser?? or underwriter??
I'm an appraiser. Underwriters barely know how to value anything. They just make sure you're following the fannie mae guidelines.

so I guess u do a lot of travelling?

hows the pay for a appraiser?

<--- interning at a mortgage company
Lots of mileage. I do about 2500-3000+ a month depending on how busy I am. As you go along it does get easier because you have more data available to you that you don't have to travel for.

The pay is directly related to how much you work. Just about every appraiser is on a fee basis. So if you're busy, you're banking, if you're dead, you're struggling.
This whole refi boom has definatly lined our pockets, but at the same time burnt us out. Lately the market shows signs of a big slowdown. Rates are still very low, and banks that want to do business always keep their rates artifically low. The economy is recovering, the rates are going to go up and appraisers are going to start hurting.

Aside from all of that, the job is cool. I work out of my home, make my own schedual and manage my own time.
 
I can deal with customers because i know thats my job, but people in the workplace that dont help really sucks and makes your day feel worse.

The people that suck at work I fire.

yeah I am seeing signs that the mortgage boom will subside soon..
also I guess that you have the most work on the last week of the month... its weird that a major chunk of the funding comes in at the end of the week

I work in a tech support department and besides some of the customers making me go nuts, which i already expect, i hate some of my other co-workers that have been here for a while and take like almost no calls all day long. One of them probably takes 1 call a day while I probably took already 20 this morning.
Management doesn?t do anything about it, they will send an email remind people to take calls during there schedule hours, that last about a day or so and then back to old ways.

cant u just tell ur boss about this??

maybe u will get more pay... 😀

They know about it, they are the ones that send the email out reminding tech support about it, but in the end nothing changes.

Well, as far as I'm concerned most loan officers and processors have their heads firmly cemeted into their assholes.
They will send me an appraisal request 2 days before closing and demand that I have it done, and in their hands in 2 days. While they have had the committment letter and the whole nine for TWO WEEKS!!!
So I'm not exactly sure how or why everything comes in at the end of the week or month, probably has to do with quotas.

LOL, really though, the fact that it's been 25+ degrees Celsius for the last couple of weeks and the air conditioning was never turned on until yesterday. Then it was realized that the air conditioning doesn't work and needs reparations or something...

IIRC, the reason is the interest is prorated for the first month... so if ur mortgage closes at the end of the month, u pay less interest for that month.

OMG!!!! I get that one at least once a freaking day!!!! ST@B!

That would make sense.
 
4 people in the queue, not answering. There are 4 people in the other tech support section that should be doing some work but instead they are scracthing there butts.
thats my biggest complaint.
 
I'm freezing my ass off in here, not that major. I dislike the fact that someone in my department left so I'm stuck doing all of their work on top of the crap I had to do while they were still here. They also hired 2 temps both of which did not last 2 weeks. I wasted my time to train them and then they're gone and I get nothing for it except more work because they were crap temps.

So you, as an appraiser, consider new cabinets a maintenance issue.

How much would you appraise a fully integrated (electric, water, NG) outdoor kitchen. It's pretty large. Can you give me a ball park figure?
 
The fvcker that is in the cube next to me that shrieks like a banshee for no apparent reason. When he stretches out, we gives out a super loud yawning noise, soinding a little like this:
"Yaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwweeeeeeeeeoooooooooooohhhhhhhhh I feeeeeeel goooood....."

But very loudly and very long. It pisses me off sooo bad, especially when I am on the phone. Last week I was on the phone when he did it and the person asked me what that noise was. I said outloud, "Oh it's just some moron who likes to scream everytime he yawns." hehe... I wish I could have thought of something better to say...
