Hey, I understand how the game works...I was just asking.
In my opinion it is no different than making it mandatory to see the contract and sales price on a purchase. Does the fact that the property is under contract for $zzz and you have knowledge of it make it seem like a predetermined value. I think they should blank out the sales contract price before we ever see it. That would be a true appraisal.
After my recent experience with the State.. Who the hell cares anymore.
