@pewpew7902 I didn't say I knew exactly what happened here, but I'm also not going to assume everything they said is exactly what went down. People seem to want to believe horror stories, when this type of thing is extremely rare, which is why it was on the news. I just find it extremely hard to believe. At the very most, it was due to one person's wrongdoing, which would cancel out the second appraisal.
First of all, comps aren't chosen according to demographics, they're chosen according to similarities. It wouldn't make sense for an appraiser to look in a "predominantly black neighborhood" for a comp. That just doesn't happen. Secondly, if the first appraiser was racist, then there would be no reason to "whiten" the house for a different appraiser.
It seems very apparent that the homeowners look for ways to be offended and I can't say that didn't play a part here, but I don't know. There isn't enough information shared in this interview to know one way or the other. I'm just saying it's highly unlikely that "whitening" their house had and affect at all. Their "experiment" shows nothing, as it's not how proper experiments are done. As doctors, they should know that.
