Unknown Broker name impacting appraisals / perception?

[Bryan Kunka]

Hey all, question for all the real estate brokers out there.  If you have a real estate brokerage but you aren't using a big name to back you up (ie: Remax, Century 21, etc)...when you are flipping houses, do you feel that your unknown brokerage name impacts things like appraisals, inspections, permits, etc?

I am pushing my partner to get his brokerage license, but he feels it may adversely impact the fix and flip business.  Since the broker name would be unknown, he feels it will bring extra scrutiny to the process - I don't buy it, but wanted to see what you all think.  

Any feedback would be appreciated.  Thanks!
