I wholeheartedly agree that allowing inflated sales prices, which aren’t adequately reviewed by a licensed appraiser, to become the basis for future comps is a dangerous and unsustainable practice. If the industry continues to prioritize volume over quality, consumers and taxpayers will bear the brunt of these poor decisions.
Rather than our effort to distill to its essence the complicated, enormous lawsuit that TSLA shareholder Richard Tornetta won against CEO Elon Musk and eight directors to clawback $56 billion in exec comp? Now that TSLA published its preliminary proxy statement for its 2024 AGM, we know how the company wants to respond to that lawsuit.
The brokers were difficult, espeically the “pre-comps”… but it was pretty cool getting paid at the door – in advance!! I don’t manipulate or omit comp data to “make it fit”… but my Regulator told me we ALL do it. This was over a decade ago but still blows my mind.
As far as I understand it, when an ROV is submitted to you by the lender, who may have received it from the borrower, they have to give you a valid and researched reason as to why their comp(s) is worthy of being considered and is better than your comp(s). This according to Dodd-Frank & the revised ROV rule.
As Elon Musk heads to trial in Delaware Chancery Court to fight claims that he ripped off Tesla shareholders when he was awarded a jaw-dropping $56 billion equity compensation package, the chancery has a rare opportunity to weigh in on the rights of shareholders to contest executive compensation.
A picture is worth a thousand words but an in person visit (subject/comps) is worth a million. I had a comp in a neighborhood I was well familiar with and after viewing the listing photos I yelled at the agent (in my head of course) where the hell are the pictures of the mountains the house was facing. She had not included one.
I’ve done some that have taken a couple of hours because they included many comps. I have to fully research each comp to determine if it’s a true comp or not. I even had one AMC tell me I should go drive by the new comps provided. Then I have to state why it is or isn’t.
Yeah, I did just that once, not to be a butt but because those comps where mislabeled and where more appropriate than two of the comps I had. In reply to Mary Thompson Thompson.
Reality is those comps could actually be good but sad news is the value is reduced. Everyone always thinks new comps means a higher value. In reply to Spencer Paul. Not trying to be a butt. They don’t.
I am sure everyone has had situations where comps were provided and IF you used them it would actually reduce value, because all they did was look at sales price and did not think to look at square footage, renovations etc.
Three comps of a matching model in the same neighborhood, sales prices 100, 125, 150. Comps selections represent one better, one worse, one similar. The closer one can identify comps, the less the total amount of adjustments that would need applied. The alternative is a classical simple mathematical approach.
FNMA forcing a repurchase and subsequent state complaint because appraiser cross comped across a school district boundary a half mile away. [link] The hits keep on coming. An appraiser just asked for help in an older thread.
The comps/market and analysis speaks for itself. Is the analysis sound, are the comps conditionally and locationally adequate and relevant to the subject. More redundancy and gobbledygook for USPAP. End of story. Who’s concerned about ethnicity or race and how can one appraise a property on that basis?
I actually think the 4th appraisal used a couple superior comps in terms of quality of construction and 3 car garages. A lot of smaller GLA comps were used though in comparison to the subject. In reply to CRAIG PREECE. Yeah I saw that too. Appraisal 1 and 3 seemed decent.
Appraiser who start out with a blank canvas (so to speak), with no asking price information provided to them, — obtaining data only by available visual information and records of the property and improvements itself, to work up the estimate and appropriate comps.
You may have heard of comparable sales (comps) before in the context of buying or selling a home. Comps are a highly valuable tool to find the value of a home or a business. One of the first steps in planning to sell your business is to get a business valuation.
Im so tired of amateurs claiming ‘driving the comps’ is inefficient or a waste of time. In reply to Dallas Kiedrowski on Facebook. Clearly they haven’t a clue as to what specifically they are supposed to be looking for. Yet they continue to undermine our profession with short sighted, poorly informed suggestions.
Or maybe he lives in the heart of the city and takes elevators to provide appraisal services on perfect square boxes with plentiful comps, mere minutes away from the home office. 1-2 hours inspection and comps. Two and three a day appraisers using typing services, outsourcing, comps sharing, click and go pre write.
Just got an email from a lender asking me to search for comps and report results prior to any appraisal being ordered. I thought THEY were supposed to stop doing that. I’m just getting over a bad case of the flu. Maybe I’m hallucinating. Never mind.
And if the house (comp) has been totally renovated since purchase than the photo it is misleading to the reader of the report. In reply to Dallas Kiedrowski on Facebook. exactly, we can see any location or view differences from the plat maps reviewed.
The TSLA board comp case was vastly interesting and even some fun. Related research from the Program on Corporate Governance includes Paying for Long-Term Performance (discussed on the Forum here ) and Pay Without Performance: The Unfulfilled Promise of Executive Compensation both by Lucian A. Bebchuk and Jesse M. Bebchuk and Yaniv Grinstein.
In other words you believe that if an appraiser is incompetent and utilizes wrong comps, data, etc. In reply to hammering hank. then he must be racist/biased! smh Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity 1
Imagine being an english professor and still being required to take english comp 101 for literally the rest of your life, and continue to pay for it full price every time. You’d better pair your comps up for extraction and allocation before your irv hits a nerve and the grm hops past your caps. It takes me 2.5
