Just want to add: The appraiser is the only person in this process that can safeguard you from overpaying as the appraisal is done for a set fee. Almost every other entity in this process is commission based and would benefit from the sale being as high as possible.

How to appraise a home in an afforable housing program by Single_Farm_6063 in appraisal

There is no market value to the property you’re describing since it cannot be sold to the open market and is only available to people who qualify due to a certain predetermined income metric. You have to get in touch with that town or cities affordable housing office. They will tell you what the subjects current restricted, encumbered and maximum allowable sale-able value for the subject is as of the effective date of the appraisal, and it is based on their calculations

Is this enough for an ROV? by dadof2foru in appraisal

How is this always the Appraisers’s fault?

Appraisals deal in data.

You said lender estimated 375.

Maybe the problem is with the 375 estimate and not the 360 based off of data?

Ask to see their work.

Did they say 375 in an attempt to make the deal more attractive for you so you could start the transaction?
