Just got offered $125 for a Commercial PCA

I think the philosophy of these folks is stuck back in the property boom days. All they really want is a name in a block on a form so they can say they did the "inspection". No concern on whether this inspection has any relationship to reality as that will be someone else's problem.

Up here I get a few of these. Want to pay $40 and don't understand that the property in question is 30 miles from everywhere and will take 2 hours roundtrip to get there. They want professional work but haven't a clue what even a bargain professional price would be.

Even with my costs of doing business pared down as low as possible in these tough times you have to charge correctly. If not then why be in business. Might as well go get a job and let somebody else worry about making a profit.

Recently did a 14 unit apartment complex for $3000. I wouldn't even get out of bed for $125. It had to be a joke!
