Correct answer: Emailing the appraiser: "The purchase price is $425,000 — we need to make this work"
The statement "we need to make this work" implies coercion — pressuring the appraiser toward a specific value. This violates Dodd-Frank Section 1472 (TILA Section 129E), which prohibits coercion, bribery, or intimidation of anyone performing a valuation. Providing the purchase contract price (A), sharing market data (B), and requesting reconsideration with new comps (D) are all PERMITTED because they provide objective information without directing the appraiser toward a target value.
