The problem was it was not done for Chase and there were small corrections which were needed and were made the same day having been sent to my correspondent lender client. The unamended file was sent to Chase, however file was cancelled that day and the amended file was never forwardered. File was placed in the cancelled files of Chase, as verified by loan officier. Head reviewer pulled file in January 2009 (?) and filed complaint with DBPR (also ego drive,) DBPR would not except amended report - even when verified by client.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18657167.post-47604817741965378892012-06-04T19:51:11.251-04:002012-06-04T19:51:11.251-04:00If anyone has had success getting off the blacklis...If anyone has had success getting off the blacklist from Chase bank, I've been told by a fellow appraiser it is difficult, but I am attempting to do so, because I have recent experience with review work which simply pays more consistently and is what I need at the moment, yet I cannot even contract for them because of CHASE and a dispute with an appraisal completed 5+- years prior. <br /><br />If anyone knows what this consist of within Florida (If location matters...?)

Although they went through the process of requesting information in regards to a summary residential appraisal after relying on a Ext Review with a more limited scope; it was obvious they either didn't take the time to read my extensive yet concise rebuttal letters. Now they are branching out to all valuation products and other niche markets... I would never complete another appraisal for them but as an employed in-house reviewer for internal company purposes, I cannot believe they have the right. In such markets, they effectively control the appraiser(s) completing particular types of reviews. <br /> In addition, the timing of some of these disputes/complaints occurred when some of us simply could not afford the legal counsel or the time taken to adequately defend an appraisal (2006-2007). I find satisfaction in knowing they paid my employer who wrote my paychecks enabling me to hire legal counsel and fight them back, and I for that, I solute you.

If i did not respond to them then would place me on an "ineligible list". I spent an entire day re-butting the comparables supplied to me. ALL the comparables supplied by Chase were deemed superior in one way or another (lot size, location, GLA etc.) What reviewer looked at my appraisal? and why supply a whole bunch of asinine Comps. The letter was not even signed by a person just the "Appraiser Panel Management" Yesterday, I received a letter stating " Based on your response, Chase is reinstating your eligibility to receive future Chase-Related assignments" GREAT! but guess what, from now on Chase is on my ineligible lender list.

I've been an appraiser for 11 years with no problems. I received a letter from Chase and sent in my rebuttal. It didn't even make one bit of difference. They said in their letter, if they were not satisfied with the rebuttal they had the right to forwarded it to the Appraisal Board. This was an appraisal I had done 5 & 1/2 years ago for another lender. I've never done any work for Chase. This appraisal was for a new modular home. In my state, modulars are considered equal to site built homes. Chase's review appraiser used manufactured doublewides as comps. Obviously that reduced the subject's value. The tax records. indicated it to be a single family residence but some of the modulars were reported as doublewides by the. county tax office. We all know how accurate they are. I submitted sales of modulars as comps. I also submitted sales since the appraisal date that had sold through MLS for more than or equal to my appraised value. Most importantly, they were all marketed as modulars and all had the required modular sticker inside. Both these points proved that the review appraiser didn't do proper research and made the assumption the subject was a doublewide.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18657167.post-79414115437693818082011-04-04T13:40:13.407-04:002011-04-04T13:40:13.407-04:00I was sent that same letter 3 yrs ago..

I was initially notified by Chase as to my "ineligible" status and was provided with the review of my appraisal from four years ago. What a piece of work! Terrible comps, including foreclosures and properties well outside the subject neighborhood, properties not even remotely similar, etc. I contacted the Chase Bank "Collateral Risk Management" department and spoke with someone who literally "yelled" at me over the phone. I remained calm, but after realizing this was going nowhere fast, I asked if they would please provide a specific list of what Chase felt was wrong with the report, and I would supply a rebuttal. In my very detailed four-page rebuttal, I dealt with every point they had brought up- most of them were absolutely ridiculous- and proceeded to ask why they would accept the findings of an obviously "poor" review over the information provided by the appraiser who was actually "there" and knew all the specifics about the property, the neighborhood, the local economy, etc. They responded by saying that I would remain on their ineligible list for "possible" USPAP violations. Shouldn't it be a little more concrete than that if someone is going to mess with your professional life? In a nutshell, I've lost two of my best clients over this (they both loved all my work, and hated to lose me, but their "hands were tied" by this Chase "blacklist"). Short of taking out a lawsuit against a company that is surely "lawyered up", there seems to be no recourse for this irresponsible action taken by Chase. Is there an actual way to reach someone at Chase who might actually listen and respond "reasonably" to my concerns? I don't feel the "Collateral Risk Management" department is the way to go- especially after the way I was treated by them over the phone. Any other ideas out there? I can't believe that I've been an appraiser for almost ten years, with no incidents or problems, and then this happens! It's just not fair play in my book!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18657167.post-23537371544768603382010-07-12T17:09:19.312-04:002010-07-12T17:09:19.312-04:00In the sarasota/manatee area Chase uses Quantrix/C...In the sarasota/manatee area Chase uses Quantrix/Core logic, they have there own staff of peopel who couldn't make it the fee world so the take jobs making a minimal salery unless they can bill over $12,000/month.

Chase never informed me, either by CMRR, email or even the courtesy of a phone call, that this had occurred. I obtained knowledge from a client that Chase had put me on the ineligible list. My opinion of value, relating to the property in question, is well supported. I am now a part of the alleged witch hunt. My reply to their request was timely submitted, extremely detailed and in compliance with USPAP. I feel the treatment I am receiving is not warrented and intend to fight their actions. I have contacted legal representation, retained on a contingency basis, and intend on moving forward in fighting this miscarriage of justice.

I spoke and met with my E&O insurance attorney who wrote a note on my behalf. Within a few days I had a response, albeit nasty, that ended with: "If future assignments are found to be lacking properly vetted comparables you will be placed on the Ineligible list again and will not be eligible for removal consideration." So now I put in all my reports that they are specifically not for Chase's use. I have also forwarded this site a week or so ago to the president of the APM so he is aware of the mess they are creating. I encourage anyone who lands on this list without due cause (as most are) to contact their E&O Insurance attorney. That's a good first place to start.
