"First step Homes" anyone had any dealings?
Okay, when I say has anyone had any dealings...I aint looking for some who had just googled* it and then feels the need to impart the full majesty of their new found wisdom. Rather someone with first hand...or maybe second hand experience of this company?
Is it a scam?

Re: "First step Homes" anyone had any dealings?
Ok so heres my only knowledge on them. I am purchasing an REO from Freddie Mac. When the disclosures came in First Steps appeared to be the guys who were appointed to carry out the appraisal. They appraised the home I am buying for about $40K less then what Freddie Mac listed it for, I looked at their comps and it didnt make sense. My home is on a 9500SF lot and comps were on alot less or even condos. Even though I am the buyer I felt that they were wrong and thats why Im still buying the property at the asking price. For a buyer its worth using them I guess.
