@Rene Brodowsky appraisers, like most workers, will take the path of least resistance if allowed.Appears they are using an AI system to valuate your home.As suggested already, you may want to request an actual appraisal, which you will have to pay for, and send your own comparables to Huntington Bank to try to guide the appraiser.Otherwise, you may need to try a different lender.
