Appraiser Angela Smith is white and racially biased, she works together with her husband Craig Smith, and both of them were suspended several years ago by the state of Ohio, Department of commerce, and they are currently under investigation again by the state of Ohio.
My father in law had a house for sale and under contract, for $120,000, we are a colored home in a colored community. The house was previously appraised at $110,000 and we did additional $10,000 improvements for the buyer.
We provided Angela and Craig Smith a copy of that appraisal report, together with 145 pages PDF file, with house info, and improvements info, etc.. Still Angela and Craig Smith obliterated the deal by devaluing the house by 25% to $90,000, and consequently the buyer terminated the deal, after we already made $10,000 improvements to follow that buyer's request on the purchase contract.
Angela and Craig Smith refused to use the comparables used in previous appraisal report, because that comparable was in zip code 45414 which is 80% white population, and our zip code is 45405 is 80% colored population, even though the comparable is less than a mile away, and despite the fact that comparable was missing a lot of features that our home offer.
