Ftc Files Complaint Against Louisiana Reab

"Thus, where a State delegates control over a market to a non sovereign actor the Sherman Act confers immunity only if the
State accepts political accountability for the anti competitive conduct it permits and controls."

Well i must admit i did not read the whole thing. I was "dead on sight" knowing the utter B.S. the little liberals will spew from their mouths.

One, the Dentist Board were regulating non dentists while trying to act like dentist. Are the AMCs acting like appraiser. The answer is no.

Two, the Dentist were trying to eliminate the competition. From what i understand the Louisiana board is setting a floor for fees. BIG difference.

Three, what in the world does political accountability have to do with the time of day.

5 minutes of my life i will never get back. Thanks.

"Conservatives are often ridiculed for criticizing activist judges who fail to respect the Constitution. We are told that it is not conservative originalists (labeled ignorant and extremist) but rather enlightened liberal judges—with their nuanced understanding of constitutional penumbras—who truly respect the spirit of the Constitution.

Conservatives, however, have good reason to be skeptical of the left’s “respect’’ for the Constitution. Just last week, for example, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg told an Egyptian TV station that she would not recommend the U.S. Constitution as model for Egypt’s new government.

The problem, you see, is that the U.S. Constitution is “a rather old constitution.” Ginsburg suggested that Egyptians should look instead to the Constitution of South Africa or perhaps the European Convention on Human Rights. All these are “much more recent than the U.S. Constitution.”

Are there any states that operate without a state appraisal board? If there are, I am unaware of that fact.

AZ has no board. I think there are a few others. Not many though.

Thanks. It appears that AZ and CA are two states without a board.

Thanks. It appears that AZ and CA are the two states without a board.

And does that then mean they can't register AMCs, and that no AMC can be used to engage an appraiser for an FRT in those states?

Only lender direct orders for FRTs in CA and AZ?

Sweet!

No, that is not what it means at all. What it means is that appraisers and AMC's are not regulated by a professional board but rather are regulated by a government agency. In AZ, appraisers and AMC's are regulated by the Arizona Department of Financial Institutions and In CA are regulated by the Bureau of Real Estate Appraisers, which is a part of the CA Department of Consumer Affairs

Oh, so AMCs are still registered and supervised in those states then?

Are there any states that are not registering and supervising AMCs?

No it does not. It means that there is no oversight.

Sorry I misread this. No bot those states have AMC registration . Not having a board doesn't have much effect at all .

Did anyone consider that appraisers do not have a free market in regards to fees if we go through an AMC?

The AMC charges $X. Appraiser has no control over how much this is.
The AMC keeps $Y. Appraiser has limited control. AMC needs to maximize this to keep in business
The AMC offers $Z to appraiser. Appraiser can try to negotiate this but offer is limited due to no control over X or Y

This is why minimum fees need to be set by Appraisal Boards based on C&R (Market Forces)
