When I was selling, I must've gotten the only appraiser in the world that actually appraises rather than just follows the contract. Idiot lost me $15k on my house. But yeah, it's _very_ clear their appraisal, which is usually _dead on_ with the offer, is a sham. I mean, even just considering the incentive structure (Who's going to hire an appraiser who causes deals to go sideways?), it's clear that they're just a middleman taking their cut.
