Big Boost For Appraisers?

Postby Mako on Wed Mar 12, 2008 12:02 pm

I'm surprised this wasn't posted yesterday.

I expect this Fed move (among others) to begin to turn the tide. It should equate to more work for appraisers going foward.

Actually it was.

And, you responded to it. (You probably just didn't read the article because it was from the NYT. :rof: )

It was, but from a different source: http://appraisers.freeforums.org/fed-to ... t2261.html

And I'll probably move yours later. Have to finish something right now.

Yes, that's true.

There ought to be a better way to link these connected, but disparate sourced pieces of info together. (Maybe I should have posted that comment on the "Suggestions" forum. lol.)

We caught that right of Steve. Unfortunately, we can't merge threads - I know I've attempted to figure ways around it but it's due to the site provider - they don't have that capabilities here on this one. A minor price to pay for the fee that we pay to be parked here. :roll: :roll: :roll:

True enough. I often provide links when I'm reading a thread that has something in common with another thread I know about. Maybe that's just the best way to do it anyway.

eye think there maybe a "shortfall" of benjamins, thought the total "Re packaging" was around $1.1 Trillion this year and another $1.6 Trillion comming up due in 2009........200 Billion, just a "Band Aid"
