Should appraiser know of issues?
I am in escrow for an investment SFR and the home inspection revealed issues with the electric wiring. I got two estimates for repair including fixing a fire hazard condition in the wiring coming from the street through attic and unpermitted work on electric panel redo. Are these issues part of what the appraiser looks at and considers to value the property?
Will appraiser even know that there are issues and will unpermitted work affect appraisal?
I'm in a dilemma about how to handle this..
Thanks for your input!
