HUD repeatedly denied my requests for procedural transparency. I was being dragged through a fake legal process and they assumed I wouldnt notice. No law firm would take my case. HUD officials refused to explain what was happening. So I did what no appraiser should ever have to do: I investigated them. And what I found is bigger than me it implicates HUDs own lawyers, leadership, and potentially members of Congress.

The old adages that "cash is king" and "you can’t spend profits" still hold true today. But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l
HUD Had No Jurisdiction And Many PAVE Cases Were Never Legal Investigations By Kenneth J. Mullinix The flood of responses I received after the release of my recent article on the PAVE Task Force initiative has confirmed what many of us already knew: appraisers across the country have been unjustly targeted, pressured, and investigated outside the boundaries of law and jurisdiction.
In reply to Pray Hard. Communists typically destroy the farmers first. “Farmers” meaning actual farmers and those most closely associated with reality. We see, feel, touch and sometimes smell the properties and the markets they’re in. We are the primary reality observers. Much or most of the time, we’re told to not believe our lying senses and to believe the words, thoughts and requirements of “a/the party” off in a cubicle in some other part of the world with

International Paper Co. confirmed on Friday that plans including a move to shut down five of its packaging sites in Britain will go ahead, warning that the closures could affect 300 jobs following its acquisition of packaging provider DS Smith PLC.
Marcia Fudges false claims about PAVE investigations werent just hollow promises; they propped up a shameful scam that enriched connected consultants and minority-owned firms through grants and mandatory anti-racism workshops, while leaving honest appraisers in tatters. Countless professionals saw their businesses collapse, reputations destroyed, and lives upended by threats, with some enduring serious health declines under the weight of baseless accusations.

In reply to Pray Hard. Have you ever read about Foucauldian Discourse? When an entity, organization, political body or in this case, regulatory body uses their stature to shift societal trends, language, and basically diminish independent thinking. The UN has pulled it for decades. Marcia Fudge and Co. were trying to pull it off here as well. The influence the ‘respected body or entity’ wields can shift minds and culture to the point where, yes, even the language that is or isn’

Kenneth, first of all, I am so sorry you are being put through this. Your resolve and tenacity is hugely commendable. Have you contacted any of the media to discuss your findings? Our muckraker type bloggers, Glenn Beck, Tucker Carlson, etc. This isn’t small potatoes.

I kind of thought this might be happening. I sent in multiple FOIA requests for information about the main cases that I knew about. They tried to shake and evade me. They told me I had to get a signed statement from Plaintiff allowing me to have the documents. They even said I needed to know the birth date and nation of origin of the Plaintiffs. That’s not how FOIA works.
Cleary is closing its office in Frankfurt after more than three decades as the U.S. law firm consolidates its operations in Germany under one location.
In reply to Kenneth Mullinix. Question; Did those few nationally publicized cases, specifically the ones involving amc’s where the amc and the lender settled out and left the appraiser to represent themselves without assistance from their client, where they by chance FHA appraisals for hud?
