U.S.-Sponsored Mortgage Giant Blacklists Private Analyst, Creates Dissidents-Jon DiPietra Update

No doubt about that. Most of these people seek shelter in organizations such as TAF and the Appraisal Institute Because A) they do not have what it takes to value property and put their signature behind it i.e., incompetence, or B) they lack Ethics and hide behind these two institutions as cover. Telford is the perfect example of someone who is dumber than a rock but somehow ends up as CoreLogic's “chief” appraiser. I remember I attended an Appraisal Institute chapter meeting way back and the president at the time told me “ I can get the client whatever value they want for the right price.” I will give BBG the benefit of the doubt for now. But if it turns out they committed fraud then this is yet another black eye for the Appraisal Foundation.
Victimless crime....
 
Reading the following, it strikes you that the entire GSE entities must have been involved in the effort to create the false, racist appraiser narrative and forgot why they exist. While policing words like church and near and superior, the wolves have been robbing them blind.

"The scale of this fraud is still unclear, in part because there is community pressure for all involved to stay mum, but investigations could net big, known players, not just little guys. One thing is certain: For midmarket buyers, tweaking deals was easy, easier than a lot of consumer transactions."

Sound familiar? Just another day in the office for the unethical stakeholders. Just don't say the word convenient. :giggle:

In deals like Drillman’s, owners could “self-certify” rental income: Property owners tell lenders, “trust us.” These loans were then sold to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Lenders often rely on title insurers to report a flip, but — critically — title companies have no legal requirement to do so.
 
Again gross incompetence by the GSEs. But hey continue allowing Mortgage Brokers to appraise properties they have an interest in. "Trust us" Fannie and Freddy will just run it through our AVM what could go wrong.:ROFLMAO:

I was taught that loans don't go bad, bad loans are made bad. Gives new meaning to "Day one certainty."

I guess speed in closing is paramount. How else could you close two sales in 24 hours for a 30% profit on a little old $70 million deal?

I saw Shawn Telford bumbling through a webinar on the new forms and couldn't figure out how someone so clueless was at the table. Then I see he is on the AQB. And among the most inept and unethical in the land are on the TAF Board of the Untrustworthy. The best cronies capitalism can buy, for sure.
