“Trust us” they say. Well, that didn’t work so well during the liar loan and sub prime epidemic that caused the credit crisis did it? So, by ego perhaps, scrupulous alignment, or the new “trust us” initiative, bias is back in the new CU.

One of the most significant values of appraisal services is found in verification(s). In fact, it’s one of the most valuable components of my service which fees are based upon. For the government agency to embark on this latest power grab to “define markets” and once again align lenders and ‘show’ them how to apply undue influence on the valuation process is an absolute disgrace considering the chain of events the past decade.

Change is constant; there is no black box the GSE and their robots can capture with infinite market wisdom in perpetuity, but they can surely pretend.

Have a great day!
