Alternatively I knew all my strengths, and definitely my weaknesses.

Ask them how they handle a weak title chain, title insurance and hazard insurance and mortgage DOS risk. 

My weakness is I'm too nice and that has cost me $$$ over the years.

You should be reviewing it, double/triple checking your assessment, cross-referencing by appraisers, re-running yours using appraisers numbers, really digging into the data to get a better understanding of your process and possible weak points or flaws.
