Homogeneous banned from the appraisal lexicon

Amazing how that so called "short list" has grown over the years. The obvious words have been hands off for years. But the list is growing. Who would have thought that "master bedroom or bath" would become offensive. How about "walking distance or walkable" or even "family oriented". Most of the recent terms that have been banned is due to the SJWs. That spend their time looking for words that might offend even one person.
That is a very short list that you cited....
 
Isn't it great that appraisers who survive are the ones who can adapt and keep up to date with what's trending and expected of us.

Don't forget that nasty word "desirable."
 
Due to all the borrowers with bad credit and non-homogenious housing types around here, I think that I will be needed at least until my retirement.

I still don't know how to get properties on the near by Indian Reservation aka Tribal Land past the auto rules checkers.
 
I had one rejected the other day for having the word "Young" in the appraisal, since it might imply age discrimination.

It was the borrower's name. Now names are offensive.
Easy redact their name and comment that it was redacted because your client found the borrower's name offensive or The borrowers last name has been removed at the client's request due to it violating their discrimination policy.

Desirable too subjective. Stop being so subjective.
It is only subjective to SJWs like you. I don't use the word. But I can say the same thing in different words. Until the SJWs realize they mean the same thing.
