As a seller, can I dispute an appraisal made by the FHA?
1-Is there any recourse when the FHA appraiser appraises the house for at least 20K less than comparable houses within a one mile radius in the same neighborhood?
2-Is it considered fraud on the part of the FHA appraiser if the person presenting themselves as the appraiser is not the person who inspected the house?
3-Is there any recourse when the appraiser basically ignores all of the upgrades to the house that make it far more valuable than similar houses?
4-Is there recourse when appraiser rates various features as average & puts an arbitrary value of $1500 on improvements when there have been over $50,000 of improvements (not including labor). New carpeting in one room alone was $1500.
