About Appraisers Getting Presure from Real Estate Agents

I thought this was a great article!

It talks about how appraisers are often pressured to provide a high appraisal to stay in business.

Interesting reading!

As the largest buyer's brokerage involved in the Saline Michigan area we are the only company to really see this like the buyers do.

Exclusive Buyer Agents (Buyer Brokerages) are companies who only work for buyers. Never taking a listing and never representing a seller's best interest.

Most other offices in our market only offer designated buyer agency, designated seller agency, or dual agency. (Most agents and brokers I speak to don't even understand what designated agency means to buyers, they just know it means more profits and less risk for the broker!)

In any case, it is good to see some balance coming to appraisals.
