FW: Simple Simon was a Pi. . . Follow Up , AI, Appraisal Institute Hey! Simmons, Sorry for any disruption to your "business," however you made statements at your McKissock USPAP Seminar, that you taught, which I found offensive and a violation of all applicable Ethics Standards, i.e., providing bogus information to the assessor's office when conducting an assessment appeal. I am going to start reporting on this and other issues which I found inappropriate, this is your opportunity to respond in writing. I will withhold the publication on my findings until next Monday, August 5, 2014.
Thanks!

IT'S THE LAW- Statement 7: Prohibition Against Discrimination
State agencies should be aware that Title XI and the Agencies' regulations prohibit federally regulated financial institutions from excluding appraisers from consideration for an assignment by virtue of their membership, or lack of membership, in any appraisal organization. Federally regulated financial institutions should review the qualifications of appraisers to ensure that they are qualified for the assignment for which they are being considered. It is unacceptable to assume that an appraiser is qualified solely due to membership in, or designation from, an appraisal organization, or the lack thereof. The Agencies have determined that financial institutions' appraisal policies should not favor appraisers from one or more organizations or exclude individuals based on their lack of such membership. If a State agency learns that a certified or licensed appraiser allegedly has been a victim of such discrimination, the State agency should inform the Agency which has regulatory authority over the involved financial institution.
