Appraisal
The appraisal must be done before the house can be finally sold!
- Licensed Home Appraiser will:
- List home price in comparison with other homes around the area.
- Thoroughly check home for defects that decrease value.
- Add features to appraisal that increase the home value.
- Make seller adjust price according to what he found in appraisal.
Meaning if the seller wants 90,000 dollars and the house only appraises for
70,000 dollars than the seller must come down to 70,000 or below, before the
lender will agree to lend the money to the buyer.
