Due to cracks in one portion of the house (resulting from a 5.3 quake 6 years ago) he determined the house had structural problems. At his recommendation a professional structural engineer was hired and the appraiser agreed to await the engineers report before submitting his appraisal. When the engineers report came in it identified "no problem". The appraiser however did not wait from the engineers report as promised and his appraisal came out substantially below his comparatives which obviously was based on this (unsupported) structural concern. When the appraiser was questioned about this he became very combative. The tax assessor, the structural engineer and the bank loan officier concurred that the appraisal appeared atleast about $100M low. In addition to the appriasers costs, he has cost me an additional $5000.
Description of Work: Unprofessional. Allowed bias of predetermined condition influence his appraisal. Became very combative when questioned about this.
