Dodd-Frank’s Radioactive Appraisers
Appraisers have become radioactive to real estate agents and lenders who are afraid they will get into regulatory trouble, due to Dodd-Frank's restrictions. What's more, Dodd-Frank has increased the requirements for appraisals, but now appraisers make about half of what they used to make. This is a formula for an appraiser shortage. Expect this area of Dodd-Frank to get some Congressional attention next year. [11/22/16]
