Client portal indicates my comments violate fair lending

Those portals tend to over-flag stuff. I usually stick to strictly property-related notes and skip broader neighborhood wording - it saves a lot of back-and-forth later.

Yeah those automated flags can be overly sensitive. I’d just stick to objective stuff (condition, comps, market data) and avoid anything that could sound like you’re describing the people or demographics.

Common decency.

Unfortunately, there is no law or regulation that requires human decency. The solution is simple.. but difficult to accomplish. Appraisers should decline any assignments with lower fees. It's unlikely to ever happen because of the mindset that is so prevalent among appraisers to count the assignments completed rather than counting the money they bank.
