The old adages that "cash is king" and "you can’t spend profits" still hold true today. But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l

I have said it before and will say it again… IMHO there is more bias in appraisals that come in at contract price for purchases than any other appraisal type. Reason? coming in at the contract price means nobody complains, and if nobody complains then they can’t blame racial bias. Yet that may be the bias that actually exists if either of the parties is a minority and the appraisal stretches to support the contract price (overvalue) so as to avoid a complaint of racial bias.

In reply to Bill Johnson. Yes I saw this promotion on FB. Good luck with the NON lender junk they come up with to then take a 30% referral fee! Typically my experience with obtaining my own NON lender work for years, you MUST be the one to sell those NON lenders on YOU and your work, not some 3rd party they do not know! Most of my non lender work is direct referral from someone who knows me and my work and the person they are referring me to knows that person well!
