appraiser in st charles mo: One Online Business Directory That is Tough to Enter, DMOZ - 01/31/09 08:15 AM
Several months ago I began an attempt to increase my business's website search engine rankings, for a Missouri Appraiser and other keywords. This massive project was full of online directories, web blogging, rewriting my website to be more SEO friendly, and studying SEO. Alot of blood, sweat and tears went into this project, however mission is close to being accomplished.
One of the online directories that I was told would be key to any search engine optimization plan was dmoz.org or "Directory Mozilla." This directory is the largest human edited directory in the world, Google, Alexa, AOL and others reconize this … (10 comments)

appraiser in st charles mo: Many Mortgage Lenders are Seeking Appraiser Coordinators! - 01/28/09 11:50 PM
We have another sign that the current plan for reorginization of the appraisal process is coming our way is the help wanted ads. I noticed numerous jobs available for an "Appraiser Coordinator." These jobs are being offered by major lending institutions.
Many Mortgage Bankers and Banks are seeking a clerical person to handle vendor relations with appraisers. Some of the help wanted ads request a person mortgage experience, some with customer service experience and others none at all. I have not found one that seeks a Certified or Licensed appraiser to handle relations with his/her peers. I have not found one ad … (13 comments)

appraiser in st charles mo: Borrower Feels Injured By a Subprime Mortgage! Naive or Careless! - 01/28/09 10:55 PM
One evening last week, I answered my cell phone and heard from a desperate lady. I, as an appraiser in Missouri, was asked for advise on this woman's overall mortgage condition. She found my website and ActiveRain Profile on Google. Her house was on the other end of the state, well outside my St Louis Metro Area, however I listened to her problem.
A licensed/certified appraiser in Missouri valued her home at $96,000 two years ago. She took out a cash out refinance mortgage on an adjustable rate mortgage. Her mortgage person told her the rate would adjust in two years, however she could … (7 comments)

appraiser in st charles mo: Appraiser Cannot Bend on FHA Property Guidelines! - 01/28/09 10:17 PM
This Missouri appraiser feels tired and worn down from real estate agents, loan production staff and recently underwriters telling him to look the other way on FHA concerns. HUD wrote a code for various things to be checked, I am not a building inspector, and I certainly do not wish to perform home inspections. Just a few things have to be in order. In previous blogs, I have summarized the FHA observation. Any appraiser in Missouri has long understood that no house is a perfect structure with all million parts in perfect order.
I as a professional that performed a significant number … (4 comments)

appraiser in st charles mo: Blogging on ActiveRain Real Estate Network has Helped My Search Engine Rankings - 01/03/09 02:03 PM
I am amazed at how much help ActiveRain has been to my Website visablity. Appraisalmo.com used to hardly show up anywhere on any of the sites. There has been a wonderful increase in the ratings of this website, since joining ActiveRain.
I Blogged about some things revelant to my practice, I built up my ActiveRain point total to be the top professional in my city. I am way behind the top leader in my county and state, however I am the featured appraiser in my state. These things alone appear to be helpful.
I read on ActiveRain about SEO optimization. I still … (36 comments)
