Appraiser rape and pillage in the Smokies

[Collin Hays]

So my bank is needing an "updated" appraisal on a STR that I own in the Smokies. We called the appraiser from two years ago, and he wants $700 just to update it. That's not even going to the property - merely pulling some comps and plugging them in.

We decided to call around and were quoted $2000 or more for an appraisal, and it would be at least 30 days.

We know who is making all of the $$ now!
