Appraisers Petition 2002
Concerned Real Estate Appraisers from across America
Submit the attached petition (Which was posted on appraisersforum.com):

To: Mr. Ben Henson – Executive Director
Appraisal Subcommittee (ASC)
Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
email: benh1@asc.gov

cc: Other state or federal agencies with authority in the following matter

“The ASC’s mission is to ensure that real estate appraisers, who perform appraisals in real estate transactions that could expose the United States government to financial loss, are sufficiently trained and tested to assure competency and independent judgment according to uniform high professional standards and ethics.” From the ASC website.

The concern of this petition has to do with our “independent judgment” in performing real estate appraisals. We, the undersigned, represent a large number of licensed and certified real estate appraisers in the United States, who seek your assistance in solving a problem facing us on a daily basis. Lenders (meaning any and all of the following: banks, savings and loans, mortgage brokers, credit unions and loan officers in general; not to mention real estate agents) have individuals within their ranks, who, as a normal course of business, apply pressure on appraisers to hit or exceed a predetermined value.

This pressure comes in many forms and includes the following:
the withholding of business if we refuse to inflate values,
the withholding of business if we refuse to guarantee a predetermined value,
the withholding of business if we refuse to ignore deficiencies in the property,
refusing to pay for an appraisal that does not give them what they want,
black listing honest appraisers in order to use “rubber stamp” appraisers, etc.

We request that action be taken to hold the lenders responsible for this type of violation and provide for a penalty on any person or business who engages in the practice of pressuring appraisers to do dishonest appraisals that do not provide for independent judgment. We believe that this practice has adverse effects on our local and national economies and that the potential for great financial loss exists. We also believe that many individuals have been adversely affected by the purchase of homes which have been over-valued.

We thank you for your cooperation and assistance.

Sign this Petition Your name and any comments you make will be added to those below:

#7 THE ENDGAME: When the Fed RAISES Interest Rates

June 13, 2010 - 6:13 am 2 Comments

In this video Mr. Fed describes the endgame scenario that central bankers around the world are attempting to avoid, i.e. when a sell off in Treasuries causes the Fed, against their will, to RAISE interest rates.

Although this endgame scenario is rarely discussed in the United States, it is nonetheless a cause of deep concern and anxiety in financial circles.

RAISING interest rates in this fragile economic environment would have profound deflationary implications for all of us.

Part of a series on Federal Reserve policy by Mr. Fed.

TheRealDeal – Lower interest rates needed to pick up market

June 13, 2010 - 6:03 am 1 Comment

On a segment on CNBC Fast Money, the traders discussed how lowering mortgage interest rates could turn the housing market around. The correspondents argue that people are waiting to buy homes because they want lower interest rates, and until interest rates drop, there won’t be any credit available to buy homes. One trader said the mortgage interest rates will fall to about 4.5 percent.

Fred Solomon announcing low interest rates, affordable refinance, Obama plan helps

June 13, 2010 - 6:03 am No Comments

Interest rates are down at least one full percentage point just in the last week. If you are on an adjustable and you are lucky enough to still have some equity in your home and you can qualify with your tax returns, meaning full documentation, now is the time to take a look to see if we can help you refinance out of that adjustable,” says Fred Solomon, author and co-host of The Solomon Free Money Hour talk radio and co-founder of Solomon Financial since 1990.

If you can’t refinance out of the adjustable then the next step we look at is doing a loan modification for you. On a loan modification we have to see if you qualify for it and you have some hardship (in other words, your income is down and your expenses are higher.)

Please take advantage of this time. Interest rates are at an all time record low. If you are thinking of buying, purchasing, buying investment properties it is an incredible time to be taking a look at that opportunity today, especially with rates being lower than what they were just one to two weeks ago.
