I think the reason why you had So few replies thus far is it’s hard for people to relate to these three examples. 

Then make sure you sell it within the next three years. 

But, in actuality there’s (at least) THREE different market values.

The characteristics of this tenant segment have a significant impact on your rental income.For example, below are the characteristics of the three major tenant segments in Las Vegas.

Each state can be a little different so the details matter. https://www.omglawfirm.com/arkansas-probate-intestate-succes...Here is the pertinent excerpt:If you don’t have a Will, the default order of descent goes like this: (1) full blood and adopted children of the decedent, subject to any dower, curtesy, and homestead interest of a spouse; (2) if no full blood or adopted children, then everything to a spouse of greater than three years or half of everything plus dower, curtesy, and homestead to a spouse of less than three years and the other half of everything to other heirs (per this table); (3) to the decedent’s parents or surviving siblings; (4) to the decedent’s grandparents or surviving aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.; (5) to the decedent’s great-grandparents or surviving great aunts, great uncles, etc.; (6) if none of those intermediate descendents are alive the remaining half can go to the spouse of less than three years or to a predeceased spouse’s heirs; (7) finally, if none of these apply, all the property escheats to the county where the decedent died.

I think you have about 90 days to move into the property for an owner-occupied loan but I am not sure if that differs between FHA vs. conventional - @Zack Karp or @Jose Valdovinos could confirm that...Either way, I'd follow the advice of others above...give the seller two or even three separate offers that work for you. 

There are, more or less, three things you can do (other than just sucking it up and going with the low appraisal):1) Try to convince the appraiser to increase the appraisal.

Also you can also look up their names and their businesses and give them a ring for yourself.

You can search the forums and look at the current conversation that has three pages full of conflicting advice.

@Jason Frink, this page seems to cover it:https://www.omglawfirm.com/arkansas-probate-intestate-succes...Here is a pertinent snippet from that page:If you don’t have a Will, the default order of descent goes like this: (1) full blood and adopted children of the decedent, subject to any dower, curtesy, and homestead interest of a spouse; (2) if no full blood or adopted children, then everything to a spouse of greater than three years or half of everything plus dower, curtesy, and homestead to a spouse of less than three years and the other half of everything to other heirs (per this table); (3) to the decedent’s parents or surviving siblings; (4) to the decedent’s grandparents or surviving aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.; (5) to the decedent’s great-grandparents or surviving great aunts, great uncles, etc.; (6) if none of those intermediate descendents are alive the remaining half can go to the spouse of less than three years or to a predeceased spouse’s heirs; (7) finally, if none of these apply, all the property escheats to the county where the decedent died.A good way to visualize the order is to imagine the following scenario: Alfred dies without a Will.
