BPO Comments". Commonly used comments ??

More valuable as a heat source for the homeless.

Jayesnoop: Very funny! I had an REO listing where homeless people had set the garage on fire.

I started a similar thread a few months back called comments shared file. There was a consensus that it was not a good idea. I don't want to influence your thread, but thought you might want to skim through it.

Market is REO and short sale driven, DUH!

Used best comps available. No better comps exist.

QC people hate this comment. This is as canned as a comment can get.

When I have to say I used "best comps available" I make an effort to explain why... low inventory (with 6 mos mls stats), over improvement for area, etc.

I know, I don't really use it. I just don't want to give away what I really use, because if everyone else uses it, then it will become a canned comment.

Exactly...you have to elaborate on what "best" means..wht is best about it? Distance, GLA, sales dates, age? What makes it the best? I would probably kick that back if I was a QC rep...

I sometimes say that "local market conditions are sluggish"; or something like

"market suffers from a surplus inventory waiting in the wings"; or

"real estate prices are trending on a downward slope"

But, if they read the newspapers, they may have seen those.

This has been written about a few times in recent years.

There's an earlier thread on this... BPO agents should already know what to put in comments section.

"stupid Qc questions are not permitted"

"If you need an agent to list this beautiful home I'll be more than happy to assist.(I won't tell anyone I did a bpo on this house just a secret between you and me)"

"High CRIME in the neighborhood people shouldn't live here"

"Sorry this bpo was late I won't do it again, Please don't erase my acount, I dont want to get a job in kmart"

"I'm NAPBOB Certified bia***!"

This post is only for joking purposes if you like doing bpos do not use these comments....

I actually saw the "If you need an agent" comment on a "prior" BPO that was sent to me by QC a couple of years ago.
And that was the only comments place by the agent

Oh man, I am screaming. That was funny. I just see a gang of BPO'ers in the middle of the street, armed with cameras, clipboards, and bandanas around their heads.

"Area is a reported High Crime area"

"I sometimes say that "local market conditions are sluggish"; "

---------------------

You need to be careful of this comment. In some of the countries these reports are reviewed in slugs are a delicacy in the finest dishes. They may think that you mean the real estate market is very active as good as it gets.

Yes, you're probably correct; that was very thoughtless of me.

So, how about Sloths ? Could I say "Market conditions are Sloth-Like " ?

I think Sloths probably have a less vocal support group than do the Slugs.

But I do like those smooth "bone-less" Slugs equipped with their own Okra-like base, and without those crunchy sharp shells that Snails have (which sometimes cut my tongue).

I especially like those Slugs with Pea-Pods and Hoisin Sauce over Brown Rice . . . . doesn't get much better than that !

Instead of property is in the hood, I say: Subject would be at elevated risk should it become vacant and unattended.

sbj is directly adjacent to a crack house and is near services such as drug dealers, street walkers and strip clubs

Yeah if you reword it a bit you could get away with it.... 'Subject is located directly adjacent to an unlicensed pharmaceutical facility with on call unlicensed providers of said pharmaceuticals, unique live adult entertainment center and horizontal therapists.'

Got one yesterday from a "Junior QC Review Analyst" --

Mill wants adjustments made in the comments, which we did - the JQCRA only looked at the gross sales comp prices and decided we were out of the range.

Too bad they didn't spend at least a day training this drone
