The bank required and ordered the appraisal for each home.Have you seen the first page to this thread? 

Some of these lenders will not acknowledge the LTV limit until you already have the appraisal, and then they cut leverage.

Residential multifamily is partially appraised by comps, partially appraised by the amount of income it generates.

While they were a few minor incidents, like the tenant refusing entry to the appraiser due to COVID concerns or issues with fixing things that showed up in the inspection, Eric helped sort it all out in the end, and we got them resolved.

If you bought in cash and put rehab, you can refinance 100% of the cost (purchase + rehab) so as long as the loan amount does not exceed 75% of the new appraisal. 2.

You didn't hear this from me but you can buy a property in the country, get it appraised for slightly more and put it under a conservation easement and write off the entire thing...

In need of one to use towards property tax appeal for appraised home value by appraisal district.Thanks,Nick

Expect your loan to be underwritten using an appraisal that is based on the markets long term rents, not the higher income you presumable expect to collect operating as a STR.

I also do not know whose expectation is that ADUs will appraise better in the future.  

No appraisals and some with no inspections even.
