Description
The appraisal process can get confusing, and you may have sev
eral questions. Some of these questions may include wondering
whether you can talk to the appraiser, or meet them at the proper
ty for the inspection, more commonly referred to as the observa
tion. Are you allowed to provide the appraiser with sales or any
thing else? You may also not fully understand what a comparable
sale is or why it is important, or who exactly the appraisal is for.
Other important information is knowing how to assist the ap
praiser and your customer by appropriately managing the utilities
during an appraisal, or if you should send the contract to the ap
praiser. You or your customer may wonder if the appraisal really
only takes 30 minutes, if you get a copy of the appraisal, or who
talks to whom if the value is disagreed upon. You can better
serve your clients if you know if an appraisal is an inspection, if
the taxable value is the same as the current market value, if the
square footage on county records is correct, or the important as
pects of FHA appraisals. This class can give you the answers to
such questions, among others!
