How Do Lender Use Your Appraisal?
The appraisal report will provide your bank or lender a clearer understanding of all the factors that influence a home’s value and provide an opinion of value based on this data. It ensures the bank that your agreed upon contract price is in-line with the fair market value of the home. The appraisal will consider some of the following:
- How much other homes are selling for in the area
- The gross living area of the home
- The lot size and placement of the property
- The total room count specifically bedrooms and baths
- Overall quality and condition of the home
- External factors that may influence value such as proximity to roads, power substations, etc.
- Unique features of the home or property
It’s important to understand the difference between a real estate appraisal and a home inspection. While an appraisal is mostly a visual evaluation of the property, a home inspection is an in-depth review of the home. The structure, building components and systems are tested for proper functioning and level of maintenance. For this reason it is recommended that a home inspection be performed PRIOR to a home appraisal and that the resulting report be provided to your appraiser for consideration within his/her assessment.
