Paul Austin and Tenisha Tate Austin bought a home in Marin City, California in 2016
They did $400K in renovations and upgrades including adding a second floor and more than 1,000 feet of new living space
An appraiser valued the home after renovations at $989,000, which was below comparable homes in the neighborhood – the Austin’s felt the low appraisal was due to their race
