Well the end result would be a higher loan to value, so that in turn creates a higher interest rate if your refinancing. Think about it! The bank has a list of appraisers to choose from. Could there be a few that would take a kickback from a finance company for lowballing an appraisal? I don’t know if that’s realistic, but it certainly is possible. This could be a new type of redlining!

The mortgage bank does not control the appraiser . The mortgage bank must have known something was not right with the appraisal in order to approve another one. That is very uncommon to allow another appraisal after one has already been completed. Also , research is done on the market BEFORE an appraisal is ordered to make sure the value needed to close the loan is likely to be confirmed by an appraisal. The appraiser has no motivation whatsoever to come in with a low value as they do not work for the bank. Loan officers get paid commission only on closed loans so they have zero motivation to scuttle their own loan. Mortgage banks make NO money if a loan does not close. Also , mortgage banks do not keep the loans , they sell them.

I try not to even have any specific cultural elements like tribal print rugs or blankets. Gotta keep everything non offensive.

I had my white friend go with me for tours, appraisals, and even to the bank. I was the "caretaker". They did everything except ask for her ID. They pulled the credit. The interest rate was wonderful. Both of our names are Jennifer so when he said, Ms. Jennifer, she responded. When the paperwork printed for signatures and they asked for ID, I handed over mine. He was pissed. He was at fault for addressing the person he was most comfortable talking to. When he tried to change the interest and price, he couldn't. The application was done over the phone and he never asked about race. But race was an issue because he chose to skip the basic step of identifying his client. I got my mortgage and immediately removed my savings and checking account from there. I had been a customer there since I was 18. I could never get approved even with near perfect credit and having been a nurse for 12 years. It sucks to have to go through thing like that because of the color of your skin.

I am an appraiser. I can tell you 1st hand there is absolutely no motivation to lie because we all know that if we do the following things can happen: 1) the appraisal will get challenged. That means I am creating more work for myself having to defend the challenges. Everyone can do a ROV (reconsideration of value) that the appraiser must answer to. 2) If an appraiser did lie and it gets challenged and they can't defend it then the appraisal gets thrown out. Even if they didn't lie and the people just complain they will order a 2nd appraisal. So, being racist on an appraisal and going low doesn't ensure they will actually even end up with that appraisal. 3) if an appraiser has a lot of their reports challenged and then they have to constantly reorder 2nd appraisals (or more) then that hurts the appraiser's rating with that client. That means that you aren't getting much if any work. Why risk losing money over something that, again, isn't even a sure fire way to sabotage someone? 4) If an appraiser is suspected of truly showing discrimination and a complaint is filed, that is taken very seriously. You would definitely lose your certification over that. You could be sued and we have to hold minimum 1 million dollar policies. Why risk all that time in training and education (it takes about 5 years to really get going and it isn't easy to find mentors) and a pretty good income considering all the other things I said? Now factor that into what I said about appreciation rate. Here is an easy way to view it: Historical rate over 3 years= 9% Current rate over 3 years= 18% 1st Appraiser's rate over 3 years= 18% 2nd Appraiser's rate over 3 years= 58% Does that make any sense??? Lastly, her house has an unpermitted addition. This adds in GLA, an additional bedroom and an additional bathroom. Right there could be a large value variance if the 1st appraiser (rightfully) did not include it and the 2nd appraiser (incorrectly) did include it. Add in that there is an accepted 10% variance between appraisals because they are opinions of value and not fact and you have a pretty large amount. Then add in time of sale factors and you don't know how long they waited between doing the 2 appraisal. Just a couple of new sales can change a lot in a short period of time. After all of that, if you still feel this was racism even though the news story only gave you 1 side of the story then I have to say I do not think you are being honest. Either with me or yourself but there is no way you can deny what I said.

Also, state and federal fair housing agencies can investigate and take other action against individuals or companies who engage in racial discrimination.

She had the double whammy of being a woman too. A lot of women of every color were denied mortgages up until at least the late 70s. And being a woman AND black? The deck was, unfortunately, really stacked against her. Truly unfair.

Shouldn't be surprised. That's what the codes were created for. Smdh

Jacksonville here. I'm not surprised. The Appraiser should be confronted for answers. Start exposing these people who feel the need to try lift their self esteem by tearing down ours.

I am an appraiser. I can tell you 1st hand there is absolutely no motivation to lie because we all know that if we do the following things can happen: 1) the appraisal will get challenged. That means I am creating more work for myself having to defend the challenges. Everyone can do a ROV (reconsideration of value) that the appraiser must answer to. 2) If an appraiser did lie and it gets challenged and they can't defend it then the appraisal gets thrown out. Even if they didn't lie and the people just complain they will order a 2nd appraisal. So, being racist on an appraisal and going low doesn't ensure they will actually even end up with that appraisal. 3) if an appraiser has a lot of their reports challenged and then they have to constantly reorder 2nd appraisals (or more) then that hurts the appraiser's rating with that client. That means that you aren't getting much if any work. Why risk losing money over something that, again, isn't even a sure fire way to sabotage someone? 4) If an appraiser is suspected of truly showing discrimination and a complaint is filed, that is taken very seriously. You would definitely lose your certification over that. You could be sued and we have to hold minimum 1 million dollar policies. Why risk all that time in training and education (it takes about 5 years to really get going and it isn't easy to find mentors) and a pretty good income considering all the other things I said? Now factor that into what I said about appreciation rate. Here is an easy way to view it: Historical rate over 3 years= 9% Current rate over 3 years= 18% 1st Appraiser's rate over 3 years= 18% 2nd Appraiser's rate over 3 years= 58% Does that make any sense??? Lastly, her house has an unpermitted addition. This adds in GLA, an additional bedroom and an additional bathroom. Right there could be a large value variance if the 1st appraiser (rightfully) did not include it and the 2nd appraiser (incorrectly) did include it. Add in that there is an accepted 10% variance between appraisals because they are opinions of value and not fact and you have a pretty large amount. Then add in time of sale factors and you don't know how long they waited between doing the 2 appraisal. Just a couple of new sales can change a lot in a short period of time. After all of that, if you still feel this was racism even though the news story only gave you 1 side of the story then I have to say I do not think you are being honest. Either with me or yourself but there is no way you can deny what I said.

Even if they didn't lie and the people just complain they will order a 2nd appraisal. So, being racist on an appraisal and going low doesn't ensure they will actually even end up with that appraisal. 3) if an appraiser has a lot of their reports challenged and then they have to constantly reorder 2nd appraisals (or more) then that hurts the appraiser's rating with that client. That means that you aren't getting much if any work. Why risk losing money over something that, again, isn't even a sure fire way to sabotage someone? 4) If an appraiser is suspected of truly showing discrimination and a complaint is filed, that is taken very seriously. You would definitely lose your certification over that. You could be sued and we have to hold minimum 1 million dollar policies. Why risk all that time in training and education (it takes about 5 years to really get going and it isn't easy to find mentors) and a pretty good income considering all the other things I said? Now factor that into what I said about appreciation rate. Here is an easy way to view it: Historical rate over 3 years= 9% Current rate over 3 years= 18% 1st Appraiser's rate over 3 years= 18% 2nd Appraiser's rate over 3 years= 58% Does that make any sense??? Lastly, her house has an unpermitted addition. This adds in GLA, an additional bedroom and an additional bathroom. Right there could be a large value variance if the 1st appraiser (rightfully) did not include it and the 2nd appraiser (incorrectly) did include it. Add in that there is an accepted 10% variance between appraisals because they are opinions of value and not fact and you have a pretty large amount. Then add in time of sale factors and you don't know how long they waited between doing the 2 appraisal. Just a couple of new sales can change a lot in a short period of time. After all of that, if you still feel this was racism even though the news story only gave you 1 side of the story then I have to say I do not think you are being honest. Either with me or yourself but there is no way you can deny what I said.

It was not a museum but a home that hosted fancy cocktail parties , with as much frequency as birthday and Tupperware parties . We made many wonderful memories there . Last year after a long struggle with cancer I decided it was time to down size . I was tired of maiming a 6 bedroom 8 bath home . From my experience as a real estate agent of almost 20 years , I knew that to get the most out of my home and to sell it quick I had to remove all evidence that a black family lived in the home . Luckily we could afford to move out and leave the home “neutrally” staged for sale. Like this woman I was ashamed I had to do what I did . I had loved , designed and cared for that home . We got many offers and the buyers’ agents called with compliments from the potential buyers about how well kept and beautifully designed and decorated the house was . Never once seeing the faces of the woman and family that had made it so 😢😢😢

Well, it is sad, you feel you had to hide your heritage, to sell your house, for a good price. To a degree we all compromise and keep certain things hidden, just to appear neutral, while blending with expectations. We have a world that is complex while tolerating hypocrisy on many levels. We navigate through it, but should never take personally , the obtuse minds of some people, we may have to deal with as they are insignificant.

She should have contacted the first and second appraiser to inform them of the "experiment".

This literally happened to me and my parents a couple months ago. Sadly, none of us are white end can do this trick.

You dont have to 'see' to believe it, you just have to be black.

Her statement sounds like self hate, honestly. She's taking the blame upon herself because someone else was racist. Not a good message but that's how they do in the media.

It wasn’t because of her race, it was because of racism. I could say the low appraisal was because of the appraiser’s race.

She needs to give the names of these companies. The companies need to be exposed for their garbage behavior

This screams wrong! I don’t understand how people can think that human life is devalued by the tone of ones flesh.

She meant b/c she removed the evidence of blackness inside the home to get a better appraisal value vs accepting the whack low-ball one. You do what you gotta do sometimes even though you shouldn't have to.

Was an appraisal review by another appraiser in that area done on the first appraisal? What comparable sales and listings were used to value the home? This story lacks context and doesn’t even to begin to explain how an appraisal is done. Appraisers don’t just make up a number without having support from the market and a report that explains why the appraiser believes the property is worth that value. I’m an appraiser and it’s hard for me to believe one appraisal was 40% lower just because the appraiser was purportedly racist. There are almost certainly many other factors at play.

I’m glad she had the courage to highlight this mess, we deal with this kind of discrimination far too often.

This is heartbreaking! Taking down the memories of a loved mother, wife and best friend? Seeing her in pain felt like a funeral. Rejection is one of the most damaging aspects of humanity. She tried her best to put on a brave face, but the sadness she felt was all too clear.
