The lender just needs to explain the builder up front that the funds can be wired same day as the home is set on the foundation and coordinate with the appraiser/inspector to meet at the time of delivery. 

But what a lot of people don't know is that if you have owned your property for say 5-10 years - all that deferred appreciation your county tax appraiser has been tracking all those years - but not able to pass it along to you due to the caps on increases - goes out the window.  

Here are the numbers: Appraised Value: $250,000I Owe: $150,000 Homes in the immediate area: Selling for $1.3 million I would like to figure out how to strike a win-win deal with an investor/ spec home builder where I get my full value of the land (once the project is done) and a small percentage of the overall project profit

In our case we had to pay approximately 90% of what the appraised value was.

Title issues, seller issues, non-refundable deposits, no inspection period, lending issues, appraisal issues, liens, IRS liens, city liens, no wills, unpaid back taxes, solar liens, and all kinds of other crazy stuff.   

Appraisal done. 

Or know of any that have sold or appraised?
