OR Chapter | Six Recent Appraiser Lawsuits (and The Lessons from Each)

When:  Feb 10, 2021 from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM (PT)
Associated with  Oregon Chapter of ASFMRA

Six Recent Appraiser Lawsuits (and The Lessons from Each) discusses the interesting facts and legal issues in six recent lawsuits filed against real estate appraisers and draws the key takeaways from each case. The cases discussed address such matters as: 

• The appraiser who allegedly left the faucet running and flooded the property.
• The appraiser accused of making a 15% error in square footage - will the appraiser be liable to the borrower?
• Appraisers being accused of discrimination and violations of the Fair Housing Act - what happens in a HUD investigation?
• The commercial appraisers who reported they performed a complete inspection but missed the flooding in the basement.
• The appraiser sued 6 years after delivery of a report. Will the statute of limitations get the claim dismissed?
• What are the main reasons that appraisers are being sued during the Covid-19 pandemic?
