The Appraiser's Water Cooler

THE "Social Network" for Real Estate Appraisers

I want to warn everybody, especially the Florida group, about an AMC in Ruskin, Florida known as the Appraisal Solution, Inc. The owner is a slimeball named Brandon Waters. I did two appraisals for this guy back in September and simply cannot get him to pay. Neither one of the appraisals worked out well, one of the houses was a one-bedroom house and the other was in a severely declining market. Be that as it may, this guy has promised me over and over that he would pay and has given all the usual promises and excuses but he is just a liar.

Take his work and his word if you want to, but a wise person will heed my advice and turn this guy down cold unless you can get paid at the door. If we shut this turkey down, he will stop this garbage. I suspect we will see a lot of this junk in the near future when every dimwit appraiser starts an AMC and every washed up mortgage broker sees another chance to make a fortune.

The Appraisal Solutions, Inc. ordered two FHA appraisals from my company in March, 2009. They took the home owners debit and credit card numbers for payment. I never received payment. Both home owners have been contacted and informed that this company is a scam and they have their card numbers that could be used at a later date. Appraisers need to inform home owners of this. The Lender who closed both of these loans, Flagship Mortgage, says that I have the wrong company and they never had anything to do with this. Even though their name and address are on both reports and both closed with someone!!??? Go figure. Flagship Mortgage Corporation, 100 Old Wilson Bridge Rd. #207, Worthington, OH 43085. If I were you, I would not take an order from this company from any management company as I can only assume that they were a part of this. Out of state companies think that they can just refuse to pay, or ignore us and they can just keep our fees. And with the new HVCC forcing us to use these AMC crooks, I guess they can. Way to go Fed's and Fannie Mae. Why don't you just stab us in the back after you kick us in the stomach!!! If anyone has any contact info or location on Brandon Waters, I would appreciate the info. 256-881-9594
