And then stack on top of that, that appraisal fees have not been tracking with local cost of living increases for years (all we did is introduce AMCs to take a cut of the appraiser's pie), forcing it to be a volume game rather than a quality game, and as a human one would expect that someone is going to feel less bad about someone not being able to refinance and save $100/mo (possible consequence of low refinance appraisal), than they will feel bad about a family losing their dream home (possible consequence of low purchase appraisal), and as a result it isn't crazy to think that a human appraiser will spend more time trying to arrive at an opinion of value that matches expectations on purchase appraisals than refinance appraisals.
