Great article, "Appraisers the Convenient Scapegoats." It's happening yet again as home prices decrease. American Enterprise Institute (AEI) just warned the public in a December 2022 report "Government lending policies are encouraging lower-wealth, cash-constrained homeowners to give up their valuable current low-rate mortgages and use cash-out refinances to meet other financial obligations. This use of “the house as an ATM” particularly during this rising mortgage rate environment can pose inherent risks for borrowers."
And who will be blamed when these people refinance then can't afford the new payment because of the recessionary economy? Appraisers...again! We were blamed for the Great Recession aka Great Financial Crisis. Today they say that was actually because of "racial discrimination by appraisers."
These people are intentionally misinterpreting statistics. Yes, POC are more likely to lose their homes in foreclosure but it's not the fault of appraisers. It's a fact POC make less income than whites. People with less money buy less expensive homes. Politicians should fix the income inequality if they really care about POC. They won't because that's too hard and it's easier to blame appraisers. Because of income inequality POC have less wealth, fewer assets, higher debt and no generational wealth. They generally put a low down payment with the help of government loans. They were also encouraged by the government to get student loans to "get an education to increase income and wealth" which hasn't worked. They just ended up more in debt. The government is actually the one making these people more poor by causing them to lose what little money they have.
When these people refinance, they take out and spend all their home equity while increasing their monthly payment sometimes above their ability to easily repay it. The government even tells them it's a great way to get rid of expensive credit card debt which encourages more credit card debt. Values go down and they owe more than the home is worth. When you have no emergency savings, other assets, home equity and have an emergency, you will lose your home in foreclosure.
It's not the fault of appraisers! Politicians, other say these lies to win votes and support from POC and low income people. They created this non existent racial problem just so they can say "I alone can fix it." They hire like minded people to run HUD and other government programs. These people encourage and spread the false "government backed" narrative. They promote Andre Perry's fake "paper" about racial disparity in home ownership. Years back we were just "deal killers." Now we're all allegedly "racists."
The "racist old white male real estate appraiser" is a false narrative. The public doesn't seem to realize the real correlation between race and home valuation is race = income = wealth = value of home you can afford to buy and own. It's not race = home value made by racist old white male appraiser. The causation of the value of black, brown owned homes is INCOME and not RACE as proven by independent research by AEI and others. Same goes with cars. More white people own expensive cars than black, brown for same reason. Maybe they should blame Kelly Blue Book for the difference in values between a mint 2022 Rolls Royce and a 1985 Ford Escort in poor condition with 300,000 miles. Maybe Kelly Blue Book should be called a RACIST instead of a software program. The data people cite in this case didn't even come from old white male appraisers. It's a software program that doesn't know race or color. People just prefer to believe their house is worth less only because of a racist old white male appraiser. If people want to fix the problem, fix the income gap between white and black, brown. Attacking appraisers doesn't solve the problem. #realestateappraiser #falsenarrative #homevalue #homevaluation #realestateappraisal #race #income #wealth #generationalwealth
