I'm emailing pics, a completion, and bids for today's work.

When I was driving truck I could be gone 3 weeks at a time. For me I'm not even gone 3 nights per month now. (on average)
Big difference.

Are you folks working in a very rural area that requires distance travel?

Re: HUD And REO Property Preservation


I am trying to find a easier way to date stamp my photos, I have to stamp one photo at a time with my camera. I downloaded the trial version of SnapTouch to try out and I am able to date stamp the photos but do not see the print option. I have to print to PDF to upload the photos.
I contacted SnapTouch and have not received a reply back, does anyone know if the registered version will have the print option?

Thanks!

Resize and datestamp your photos, save to file, download Cutepdf (google it) once downloaded, go to saved photos, select all, right click, print, cutepdf writer, save to new file as a pdf. DONE.

Re: HUD And REO Property Preservation


I have the CutePDF and AdobePDF. I tried right clicking to print but the file saved through the trial version of SnapTouch does not give the print option.
I want to make sure that SnapTouch does have the print option before I purchase Snaptouch. Any other date stamp software out there?

Thanks

Re: HUD And REO Property Preservation


Mtmtnman ~

What a cool little program! We've been using PixResizer for years and it works great but this one goes a step further and I like it.

What I really like is the Watermark feature in this software. We've been thinking about adding our logo to all of our photos before sending them off to the clients. Now maybe we can do that. I'll have to play with it some more to get the dimensions just right but it shouldn't be too difficult.

I use Windows 7 so, to anyone wondering whether or not it's compatible, the answer is yes, it is.

Thanks!

Linda

Cyprexx got a lot of their business. But they're not going to give you the increase in allowables that FannieMae provides. They'll give you the same rates they always do and pocket the difference.

We just did a couple of jobs for Cyprexx in Kansas and the VM was so full of attitude and difficult to work with that we terminated our relationship with them altogether.

Between their low rates and personality disorders, they were able to remind me why we don't work for the nationals anymore.

Glad it worked out for you. It saves a lot of time to resize and datestamp all at once. Also for those companies that want timestamps it pulls the HEX data from the photos and stamps accordingly.......

Damn that's not good! I just started with them and so far they have been decent but they do have a bit of the "Cubicle Mind" disorder.I did get a check on Tuesday for a re=occuring that i did on Jan 29th. Don't know how fas they pay on the preservation end as i had my $1800 invoice turned in for a trashout on the 30th and have not seen a check yet. They say turn in by the 5th of the month and get paid in 2 weeks.............

Our invoices are 1/21, 1/26, and 1/29. No payment yet. My son also owns a preservation business. He's waiting on over $3,000 that was due last month.

When things slow down, the clients hang onto your money so they can still pay their payroll and not close their doors. It happens every time after there's been a moratorium.

Good luck. Let us know how it goes.

Linda
