Did Raines help with the math?

No problem, I worked as an independent fee appraiser in the past and I understand that the typical fee appraiser just does not have the same access to some of the data that we are able to see on this side of the business (which is not their fault). I also don't know any residential fee appraisers who work 30 feet from a bunch of data analysts/quants who spend all day analyzing this type of data, lol.

No we certainly don't, at least not easily (LOL - not that I really care as an appraiser on this particular score, more of a personal interest). I worked for a time closely with FNMA as a specialized underwriter and came across the info there. The other side is a very different perspective indeed. And the suspicions were correct, my info was outdated.
