Hi,
Welcome to the forum.
I am a real estate agent (realtor) and in that capacity meet appraisers from time to time. I am originally from the UK (London) and am now in Vancouver.

The appraisers I know all work for companies, often small ones. Their work comes from banks and other lenders.

Let me know what specifically you'd like to know.

Hi,

My mother lived in Calgary, though at that time I was in the UK. She loved the climate there because it is so dry. Winters are cold. I remember visiting here when it was -28 c and not very pleasant waiting for the bus!

Winter means taking the time to dress properly and just getting on with it. Here in Vancouver we dress for the rain, and only put on winter gear when we go skiing. I always like to think that snow is where it should be - on the mountains - and is there for us to play in and not to shovel.

Hope the job works out.

Warmly,

Frank
