Customer Declined Based on Appraisal Not Credit

Answered by: 

Question: 
If I have a customer that was not declined for credit reasons, but was declined based on information from his appraisal, would our customer be declined from information obtained by a third party (i.e. an appraiser)?
Answer: 

No. The reason for the denial would be insufficient collateral value. If you used information about the applicant obtained from a third party, you'd have to disclose it, but not if the appraisal is the reason for the denial.
