Who "owns" The "appraisal Report"?

[CANative]

That would have to be determined by a court of law. I am not an attorney.

lol...

What they are trying to tell you is that the data is theirs and the liability is yours. Two faced in my world.

You could always keep all your data to yourself by not sending out appraisal reports. You could be a data hoarder.

Data is only as good as the person analyzing it. See climate change.

Wrong. Data is data. Interpretation and analysis of the data relates to the intertpretor/analyzer of such data.

Bad data leads to misleading results. Thanks

You contribute nothing to this forum.

Many years ago I refused to sign on with some well known bank's AMC because their agreement included language that said they owned not only my appraisal but they also owned my work file. And it further stated they could tell me when to destroy my work file. Some honcho even called to see why I wouldn't join their panel. I explained the language and he said 'oh well they would probably never really do that'. And I said well then why is it in your agreement?
Obviously all the other appraisers on said panel had no problem signing it...

And that would be when you throw it in their face that that would be a USPAP Violation as we are required to maintain a work file.

You know nothing about the scientific method, and verification of results based on procedures accepted by peers. Though not a current political figure, you might find some comfort with Thomas Kuhn-

Wrong.

Wrong?

It is like being told you did something when you didn't!

Or you didn't do it when you really did.

There are special names for this, called "False Positive" and "False Negative":

Data isn't always correct data. Maybe you missed that in math class.
