After purchase, The roof leaks, I contacted the village to get the information of the contractor and  they informed me the roof did not pass inspection and the roof ridge lines are collapsing and certain areas of the roof need new decking and the shingles were not installed with underlayment.  

Have you contacted the agents or owners to speak about the properties? 

I would contact the appraiser and aside from voicing your argument I would send him three better, more suitable comps that illustrate three properties in areas as nice as yours that have a garage, etc and layout similar to what you have.

I would like to preface that I've already sent this to my CPA (so please don't suggest "Contact your CPA") I'd like to hear from the BP community and your ideas and thoughts.

So, if you want to connect my contact in fo is pepinveronicaATgmail.com.Cheers!
