It was a little funny to read about FHA appraisers that missed glaring problems. They must have fixed the issue within the next 15 years. My VA appraiser nearly kept me from buying a house because of chipped paint on a decorative railing. Because she was too "busy" to come out and verify the repair, I was a day away from losing my lock on my mortgage rate. It would have been a percent higher and priced me out be able to afford the house. 25 years later, I had to spend several thousand dollars to repair a house that I wanted to sell "as is" to satisfy the FHA appraiser. BTW Merkin was based on Adlai Jr, the presidential also ran, not the III.
