A black Indianapolis homeowner's evaluation of her property doubled when she concealed her race.
YEP!
She got three appraisals.She got one that she thought was quite low. She got another that was $15,000 LOWER than the first one. Then she thought she'd try something different. The appraisal went from about $130K to $259K!
Can you imagine?. If you're white you get premium valuation. If you're black you don't.
Who knew that the COLOR OF SKIN OF THE OWNER was the basis of appraisals? NOW YOU DO. GO FORTH AND MULTIPLY.
See I PROMISED you no one died. I kept my promise.
