Your mortgage complaint — delivered … on a platter, with ribbons

November 1, 2006

Somebody hasn’t been listening!

In the “company loves misery” department, Jim Duncan of Realcentralva.com notes that Ditech, the online mortgage giant, is now offering an instant online property value estimator. Um, wait a minute, wasn’t a large part of the NCRC complaint that mortgage brokers were using Zestimates to sell inflated mortgages to homebuyers?

The tool, which appears to be a First American product, offered a rather wide range of values for a sample home:

Surely Ditech has an NCRC-proof disclaimer?

Judge for yourself:

Looks like an early Christmas gift for the NCRC lawyers. Pull out the Zillow complaint, make some photocopies, and drop if off at the FTC.

    Well the good news we can start lining up all the online appraiser services next to each other. It’s going to be a confusing mess for people now. Yet more reason to call a Realtor.

    Look at http://www.eppraisal.com

Got something to say?
