Comment on Let’s All Build the Gallows Together by Dave

Appraisers Blog

Thanks for the question Todd. Depreciation is not a straight line calculation. Depreciation is accrued depreciation which considers more than physical condition. There is some question as to whether land value is land as if vacant or land value is as it contributes to the improved lot. For all of these reasons I wouldn’t waste my time to try to convince somebody that this is a reliable approach to valuation.

In reply to Baggins. This comment was edited by AppraisersBlogs Team. Profanity is edited out because it’s inappropriate within the context of this blog. I never said I enjoy making less than a Target employee, I do desktop appraisals because I am handicapped. I made over 80k last year doing desktops. Pretty sure like you hasn’t made that money ever.

To Dave and those Baggin (pun intended) on desktop appraisals… I have to question either your analytic ability or if you are just being belligerent trolls… What you are saying is that you can perform a credible appraisal assignment from an exterior only perspective (2055) with the ability to see the front of the house, and maybe down 2 sides or if you are really lucky the rear because there is an alley but no cat smells and unless you can use Astral projection or have that cracker ja

Statement of Cash Flows vs. Cash Flow Statement

Speaker: Wayne Spivak - President and Chief Financial Officer of SBA * Consulting LTD, Industry Writer, and Public Speaker

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

In reply to Dave. Dave, Just curious… If you don’t believe in the cost approach, How do you support your remaining economic life figure? If you have to supply a land value for your clients or they require you to perform the cost approach and you cite extraction or as some call it abstraction, how do you “extract” the land value without calculating the depreciated value of the existing improvements, which requires a cost approach?

In reply to Spencer Paul. I have a base fee that I use which is grounded in how long an average appraisal takes me to complete, some I do quicker, some I don’t. If some unforeseen issue causes it to take much longer than an average report that is my fault for not seeing it when I quoted the fee and I eat it. However, I research every assignment I am given before agreeing to the fee and turn time, and if I determine there are complexities that will cause the assignment to take longer then I
