Appraisal Firewall

They seem to be like Elle Mae or Encompass, it will all depend if the
the Primary Lender will accept the procedure. This sort of arrangement
lets a MB pick the appraiser like in the good old days. And this is just a
guess, but I'm thinking the MB staff does the UW/guideline stuff. Elle Mae
has a tie in with data and title products. How much do these guy charge?

It's my understanding that the HVCC states no appraisal will be accepted from a mortgage broker - it has to be ordered by the lender. Did I read that right?
 
No law, agreement, or appraiser can stand between a lender or MB
and the money they get at closing.
 
Appraiser Firewall is NOT Dart. Dart USES the Appraisers Firewall.

I dealt with Dart many years ago. Never bothered to take a 2nd order. Their work was CRAP and they never offered anything close.
 
Appraisal Fire Wall

Anybody use Appraisal Fire Wall and have your clients accepted it as legitimate compliance for HVCC?

I have used it and have 2 clients utlizing it. They seem on the up and up and their fees are resonable
 
I have looked into Appraisers Firewall. I set up a trial lender account and a trial appraiser's accout. Customer Service was very helpful. Appraisers pay a flat rate of 3% of the invoices amount. It never changes. They are simply the handshake between us and the lenders and they are HVCC compliant. I am trying to talk all my clients into using them.
