They can't just copy and paste raw CU output and demand that the appraiser figure it out or explain. They can use the output to analyze potential problems or concerns and articulate their concerns.
Unfortunately, that's exactly what they're doing. I had a report come back with a "revision request" because CU showed my GLA was different than another report previously submitted and asked that I comment on that. When I submitted the original report I had it clearly stated (twice) that the living area as reported was based on field measurements by the appraiser and differed by the county assessor by 18ft due to rounding by the assessor. The client bounced the report back because CU flagged it that the GLA was "materially different" than a prior report.
So I replied to the email request that I cannot comment on an alleged appraisal report done by someone else. That they'd have to supply all documentation to back up CU's claims. They replied that they don't have any information, that CU doesn't supply them with anything and would I please open up the report, give it a new file number and signature date and state at the top of the comments page that I cannot comment on the findings of the alleged appraisal report whose information differs from my findings. True story.
