AM-SCAM 0, Good gyus 1. 6875 11
Started by grsjms
A month ago we took a class from a CAT adjusting company near Dallas, TX that we will leave nameless, lets just call them 'AM-SCAM'.
We walked aout after two days because after 'graduation' on Friday (5 day 0-to-adjuster advertisement) we read the end of the book and realized all we would be qualified for is to work for them, adjusting simple (roof/siding) claims. They admitted on the phone that *IF* they contract you, you get bottom (no pay) claims and you sig...

Sketch problems 10510 10
Started by Jim Seylor
I've been following xact's chap.4 tutorial online with some success. But when I make mistakes and delete out the staircase to move walls etc. the program leaves phantom zones that cannot be over written. Also on the roof if I'm clean, no mistakes using square break gives a nice hip with offsets and proper valleys. Otherwise it just cuts a chunk out of the corner and I can't move anything. Trying to merge roof 2 into roof 1 simply draws seperate roofs. The eave heights are equal. Seems like there...

I would not charge new people to learn how to scope storm damage. I would be honest and invite them to my office address to learn from the old pro,s who have looked at 50K roofs in their lifetime. Ask the new people to house and feed themselfs for a 5 days. Show them closed files for the first day.(each day is 12 hours). Then roof measurements one day, then inside structure 2 days, then ALE 1/2 day. Then contractors and PA,s 1/2 day. And on the last day photos 1 hr, reports 2 hr, appointments 1 ...

This has probably been answered somewhere in this forum before but I haven't really found a complete, definitive answer.
I live in Michigan and am recently TX All Lines licensed. Following that I was fortunate enough to be deployed and worked IKE for about 6.5 weeks for an independent company out of SC. What an experience! I know I probably did this backwards due to likely bad advice&8230;I am now in the process of obtaining my resident Michigan license so I can do some work here ...
