					<description><![CDATA[<p>This case exposed the cracks in an FHA system where failures by the lender, the AMC, and the review process aligned in ways that no borrower could have anticipated. It shows how easily an appraisal error can escalate when every safeguard designed to prevent harm breaks down at the same time. When the first article about this case ran on July 15, 2024, it already raised serious concerns about how an FHA appraisal could miss something as basic as the type of water and sewer service. What has emerged since then paints a much larger picture, one that shows how&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>The latest round of modernization comes wrapped in friendly language, but the flags are hard to miss if you’ve been paying attention.&#160; For years, appraisers have been warning that the mortgage industry was slowly engineering us out of the process. We were told we were paranoid. Resistant to change. Stuck in the past. Then the newest Mortgage Credit Executive Order arrived, and the appraisal section opened with a single line that confirmed everything we’ve been saying: expand AVMs, desktops, hybrids, and AI. That’s the priority. Everything else in that section is just polite filler wrapped around a strategy to shrink&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>For decades, we’ve been told that the problem is demand. That people don’t want to live in rural America anymore. That lending dried up because the buyers disappeared. That it’s just the market working as it should. But what if we’ve been telling the wrong story? Because when you look closely, when you actually follow the data, the decisions, and the people left behind, it turns out rural America didn’t walk away from mortgage credit. Mortgage credit walked away from rural America. The Collapse of Local Lending Up until the 1980s, a family in a small farming town could walk&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>In true Baghdad Bob fashion, Scott Reuter leads Freddie Mac’s effort to ensure that no inconvenient fact is left uncensored.&#160; For a brief time in April 2003, Saddam Hussein’s charismatic Information Minister, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, became a worldwide pop-culture icon. During the invasion of Iraq, al-Sahhaf faced reporters on the roof of a Baghdad hotel. All around him, columns of smoke billowed and sirens blared. Glide bombs shook the earth. American and British coalition forces poured into the city. Denying reality, al-Sahhaf insisted: “There are no American troops in Baghdad!” The next day, Baghdad fell. But al-Sahhaf’s gift for bombastic&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Targeted under the guise of equity, I faced baseless accusations with no due process — until I used FOIA, uncovered the truth, and turned the tables. But I had a secret weapon: I used artificial intelligence. For decades, appraisers have worked in silence, held hostage by regulations, scrutiny, and — recently — false narratives of systemic racism. When the Biden administration launched the PAVE Initiative, it claimed to champion equity in housing. But behind the curtain, it became a political tool. The result? Appraisers like me were targeted based on ZIP codes, stripped of due process, and labeled racist —&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Folks, I recently attended a Train the Trainer 1.5 day class about the new UAD/URAR, jointly facilitated by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Aloft. About 20 other instructors from across the US were also present. This class is required before this new UAD material can be taught to other appraisers, under contract with the GSEs. My info below is a limited high-level summary for the new UAD and URAR of what was presented, and what the appraiser community can expect to see, from now into 2026. It is not meant to be comprehensive; I may send out other info as&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>The harassment campaign benefits a number of odd bedfellows: the housing lobby, which wants unfettered access to federal funds and taxpayer-backed mortgage guarantees through Freddie, Fannie and the FHA – they see appraisals as an unnecessary bottleneck. A firm called Mizrahi Kroub is the largest filer of so-called “digital Americans with Disabilities Act lawsuits.” The New York law firm files about a quarter of all such cases nationwide, according to a provider of web-accessibility services. The firm, which employs nine lawyers, has brought more than 1,100 web-accessibility cases against small businesses for missing alt-text, incorrectly formatting lists or providing unclear&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>By keeping the borrower in the dark about the true cost of the appraisal, the AMCs are able to charge exorbitant prices and pocket the difference (as shown in Figures 1 through 10), exploiting the consumer’s lack of knowledge.&#160; Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Request for Information on Fees Imposed in Residential Mortgage Transactions. The growth of Appraisal Management Companies (AMCs) in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis was driven by a well-intentioned but ultimately misguided belief that they could help &#8220;ensure the integrity and independence&#8221; of property valuations. The reasoning&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>The story of this single mother&#8217;s harrowing experience with a defective home purchase and HUD&#8217;s negligent oversight exposes deep flaws in the FHA appraisal and loan review process. After sacrificing for years to rebuild her credit and earn the right to become a homeowner, this borrower found her dream home in the country &#8211; or so she thought. During the home inspection, several issues were flagged. The seller, an investor who had purchased the home in an estate sale, was unaware of the septic system&#8217;s location. The seller agreed to have the tanks pumped so the location could be determined.&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>The implication that if the VALUE is too low, then there must be “material deficiencies” present, is deeply troubling!&#160; Up until recently, there has never been a standardized policy for mortgage loan related Reconsideration of Value (ROV) requests after an appraisal has been submitted. Now there is, per the attached PDF HUD/FHA mortgage letter. The GSE’s have similar policies. I’m not opposed to having a standardized ROV policy. However, these policies are in keeping with the new initiatives surrounding alleged and often unproved appraisal bias and discrimination claims. But when one reads deeper into the reason for implementing these procedures,&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>&#8230;whether through redlined maps or implicit &#8220;one-mile rule,&#8221; the result can be undervalued properties in historically marginalized neighborhoods.&#160; Throughout the history of mortgage banking and lending in the United States, underwriting policies have significantly influenced the appraisal process for home purchases and refinances. Appraisers must follow underwriter appraisal review guidelines meticulously to ensure their appraisal reports are accepted by the lender. Unfortunately, in the past, these policies became the basis for redlining, wherein certain communities were systematically denied access to mortgage credit. In this article, we delve into the historical context of underwriting policies and their influence on the appraisal&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>It’s a Great Time to Leave the Appraisal Profession. I can hear the chorus of my fellow appraisers rising up in disagreement with me. I envision many of them screaming, “But I love being an appraiser”! Yeah, I hear you. I loved being an appraiser too. Let’s not consider what we were but what they want us to become. First, ask yourself if you are still making a livable wage. I’m not and instead of blaming myself, I started running the numbers. In, my high value market, 18% of the solds were cash sales. No appraisal required on those! Values&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Folks, the following letter was sent to FHFA by an appraiser I know. It was sent in response to the ‘first’ data dump FHFA made which uses CENSUS TRACT data to try to convince others that appraisers are biased by using ‘people demographics’ contained in Census Bureau info. You can find that ‘dump’ here. The writer of that first FHFA dump was identified by name, and included an email address. So the appraiser wrote a respectful email to Mr. Russell. It turns out, shortly after this FHFA document was released, Mr. Russell left FHFA. So this nice letter sent several&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Folks, the American Enterprise Institute Housing Center has been, to date, the only major voice in the wilderness I’ve seen publicly defending appraisers and the appraisal process. They have refuted most of the highly touted ‘studies’ promoted by Dr. Andre Perry and others, which the current administration has considered the gospels of appraiser intolerable performance. The Biden-created ‘black oriented’ 13 agency PAVE Taskforce, co-chaired by HUD Secretary Marcia L. Fudge, who is a black lady, issued another report recently. AEI’s response to that is in the PDF below. Please read it. Meanwhile, Ms. Fudge recently appeared at the 75th Annual&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>The study also found that the PAREA program is not as effective in providing a more accessible pathway to licensure as the traditional apprenticeship model.&#160; Practical Applications of Real Estate Appraisal (PAREA) is a program that aims to revolutionize the real estate industry by increasing the number of appraisers. However, after listening to the Appraisal Institute speaker at yesterdays board meeting it quickly became evident that this initiative is a complete failure. You cannot start PAREA until you have received all your real estate appraisal education. 94 hours = $1,700 per McKissock Appraisal Institute speaker said that most AMC&#8217;s/banks won&#8217;t&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Appraisers, on July 17, 2023, a document from Freddie Mac was circulated to numerous appraisers around the US which identified certain words and other info that can be considered to be ‘BIASED’ in appraisal reports. Here is the Link to the Bulletin. We need to step back for a moment and carefully analyze and consider why that was done, and what it means to appraisers. In many ways, appraisers forget the purpose of the appraisal assignment – which is to value real estate. In other words, the physical structures tied to the land. But too often, elements of personal or&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Originally known as Fannie Mae’s Collateral Underwriter (CU), and subsequently Collateral Underwriter 2.0 (CU-2)i this always dubious product of Fannie Mae is increasingly being referred to by some, if not many American Appraisers as The Fraudulator / Underwriter 2.0 (FU-2). To be clear it is not limited to the Collateral Underwriter (CU &#38; CU-2) software. The new Fraudulator (FU-2) combines the CU products with their numerous improper uses. The end result of which includes OUTRIGHT FRAUD being perpetrated against banks via the repurchase letters Fannie Mae now issues on a quota based system rather than because of legitimate appraisal defects.&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>More and more appraisers are retiring every day. Aside from that more and more are changing to lower liability careers. Eventually, the opportunists who have been promoting the scam of racial discrimination by appraisers such as career politicians, and &#8216;anti-discrimination&#8217; software hucksters like Black Knight will be shown to be what they truly are.&#160; Recently, a highly respected appraiser who is also a senior designated member of a well-known national professional peer association, wrote an article about a new proposed law in New York ostensibly targeting New York appraisers. Mr. Bagott&#8217;s article had an unusual amount of hyperbole within it&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Appraisers, something &#8211; comparing and contrasting &#8211; dawned on me last week, after reading another news release titled &#8220;Dean Kelker: Appraisal Modernization is Starting to Gain Momentum&#8220;, which is basically pushing an “Enterprise” singular ‘agenda’ of valuation speed regardless of accuracy. Under the banner of “modernization.” VA does not demand appraisers complete assigned appraisal assignments extraordinarily quickly. They give appraisers 7 – 10 days (depending on location) to submit the report after assignment. VA expects good quality and accurate information. FHA/USDA/ONAP also expects appraisal accuracy using an inspection protocol that many appraisers object to, and some choose not to do&#46;&#46;&#46;</p>
