Appraisal business owners

One Step at a Time

Some days things just don’t go right. There are times when you have messages in your inbox coming out your ears, a whole list of phone calls to return, and not even a spare minute to inhale that stale peanut butter and jelly sandwich you were supposed to eat for lunch 3 hours ago. These […]

Highest and Best Use

I had a man reach out to me with a question about a property he had been asked to appraise. It was being listed as a single-family home, but was clearly meant for some other use, probably as a foster type home (he mentioned in his email to me that it had 3 kitchens –

One Step Closer to Owning a Business

One day while I was at the local state fair, I saw a one-man band walking by. As I watched him walk by toting drums, a harmonica, and a banjo, I had to laugh a little bit to myself. He reminded me of many appraisers! I was impressed by his ability to juggle everything, but

Prioritizing Your Clients

When the pandemic hit us full force in 2020, business skyrocketed. We had never been busier! If I had tried to do everything the same way I did before, hiring someone just to turn down offers wouldn’t be a joke. It used to be that I would never dream of turning down an offer. But

I’ve recently been posting about what I call the “Principles of Prosperity.” I’ve been hoping to give you a brief introduction that will pique your interest.

Freedom: the Basis of Creativity

I think I’ve talked to you about my definition of wealth before. It’s not having a sports car or a big fancy house. My definition of wealth is the ability to do what I want, when I want, with whom I want, because I want. This is all within reason, of course. I’m not going

Replication: The Road to Productivity

I want to share a principle with you. And when you hear it, it won’t be some earth-shattering revelation. It’s probably something that you already know, something that already makes sense.
