This makes perfect sense but can get out of hand. I would suppose the moderator would step in if that occurred.
On another note, if you are selling your house and the bank for the buyer says there are not enough comps to certify that your asking price is reasonable, wouldn't you either a) find all you could to support your asking price ahead of time, or b) request the opportunity to prove them wrong? Generally speaking, you are looking for what benefits you and not the buyer. The buyer has the option to back out (if the contract allows) if they do not like the results, or accept your hard work looking for comps and request a review or go to another bank.
It has been said "caveat emptor" and that is true so therefore buyers should do their homework and be sure of what they are buying. To allow a group of others to interject their "thoughts" when they disagree what the asking price is seems inappropriate and should not be the norm. Again, it is said, the value is what the one willing to purchase believes what the value is, or is willing to accept what is asked because they want it for reasons unknown.
