You can sue the first appraiser who has given you wrong figures. You should contact an attorney and check out whether or not you can take legal steps against the appraiser. _________________ Procrastination is the enemy of your financial success

While Adonis is correct that you can sue anyone for any reason, in order to WIN the suit, you will need to be able to prove an intent to mislead. Walking into court with nothing more than a disagreement with value won't cut it. You will have to prove that the appraiser lied with the intention to mislead you. There also must be a significant financial loss. Without a financial loss, you are only suing the appraiser for the cost of the appraisal fee. _________________ Benjamin Smith Atlanta Area Appraiser
