FHA appraisal in Texas.
I'm in the process of buying a house in Texas using FHA loan. The foundation has a problem where the front of the house is sinking 2.5 inches, the seller agrees to reduce the price so I can use this money to fix it whenever I want. Question is, does the FHA, appraisal will measure the foundation? The house was remodeled 2 years ago, so no sign of cracks in the interior walls. You will see some cracks outside on the brick walls (exterior walls) but inside looks perfectly fine! Lastly, do I have to fix it before the appraisal or should I wait? Specially that if it gets fixed, there's a chance that some cracks appears on the interior walls sense it got back to it's original position?
