Let me begin by saying I don't disagree with what Pam is saying in her messages to the public. What I have a problem with is in the interviews that I have seen and read Pam never seems to put any of the blame on the appraisers that commited the fraud or agreed to "bump up the appraisal to hit the number" so the lenders would be happy. These appraisers are the major problem we face and strong enforcement of existing laws and regulations are the only true answer in my opinion. If I am wrong and Pam has also been fighting the corrupt and dishonest appraisers I appologize for my earlier post, but I just haven't seen her saying it in the interviews I've seen and read.
To me Pam sounds like one of the criminals that stands in court and tells the story of how his parents mistreated him therefor he had to commit all of those murders! Yes exagerated but you get the point.
I believe what George Dodd and others are doing is the right thing and hope the board takes action sooner rather than later. I have signed the petition and have spoken to the board in regards to this and several other issues including what I feel is a lack of strick enforcement.
I do not use my real name on this forum as my employer asked our entire organization not too, so it can't be used against us like it has been against other appraisers on this forum, not because I have something to hide.
