- What a dumbass - - Clyde Cossette - 6/3/2021 - comment
This guy needs to retire. He has no idea what is going on in the current market. We are going through the process of getting a construction loan to build our dream home. Our 5 acre lot is worth at least $200k based on recent local sales. He valued our property at $95k. WTF. The 3 comps he used were from last year. He skipped a meeting with my builder to get a set of prints. He doesn't know how to zoom in a pdf file to read the numbers. When he came out for the inspection, he asked my wife if we had a septic system. It was in the information he received from the bank. WTF? There's more I can't remember right now. This guy just about F'ed up our whole deal. I sent him recent comps and talked to realtors who said our lot is worth $250k easy. He finally revalues it at $120k. If I ever meet the guy, I'm gonna kick him in the grapes. "Go back to your office and hit the pipe you piece of shit."

This is the e-mail I wrote to my lender "Panhandle State Bank", it should explain everything exactly the way it happened. Laura, I left you a message on saturday on your phone, but didnt know if you were getting those messages yet so I thought I would e-mail this to you. Please call monday asap on this. We are definately going to explore our right to request a new appraiser, please dont say anything to the current one: Gerald Porter. When Gerlad Porter showed up at our place of business to receive directions to the property last week, he became very insistant on us providing any information on helping with the appraisal, which was odd to us because in prior realestate transactions this is a "NO-NO". In addition, Gerald requested assistance to get to the location by vehicle. At the location I assisted him with measurements and ect... On Saturday, Gerald called and asked me to stop by to provide further information. When Brenda and I were in his office he was soliciting to us a "friend" of his that does home inspections, for $600-$700, and said that would be the only way that he would move forward. This again seemed odd to us and were not in agreement as we felt this was not necessary at this time. He became so verbally aggressive about this issue that my wife had to get up and leave the room. In my honest opinion he is unprofessional and incompetent to the Nth degree. I am worried that he deals with the public at all and will be reported to the BBB this evening. Attached is a letter that he requested that we write to him (which we dropped off Saturday) in order for him to rebut the document that was made public by him that he collected off our counter at our place of business that stated that there is a mold issue associated with this property, when in fact this estimate is/was only going to be used as leverage against the sellers for price reduction and is mostly false. My poor wife has exausted months of effort toward this property and obtaining it (as it is our dream home) that she has been in tears since we found this out on Friday. I realize that mold is a serious issue and that this fabricated estimate which has become public might not just go away by me saying all this, so I have gone the extra mile, I contacted a mold inspection service in Post Falls today and have made a temporary appointment with them, of which will cost us around $600. Now I dont want to spend this $ if I dont have to but at this point I am willing to do whatever it takes !!! Sincerely Darrin
