Still waiting for appraisals!

[Katie M Reece]

Hello! I'm wondering if anyone else is stuck waiting over a month for an appraisal? We were supposed to close 3/23 but our appraisal didn't get scheduled until 4/8! Sellers are not happy and I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to help things along?? Is it correct that the lender chooses the appraiser and that there's no way around it if they make you wait? Thanks!
