Account Closed Comps and Appraisal confusion
13 February 2014 | 11 replies
I had a house close last June that I couldn't find any comps to support the value and felt sure that it would never appraised- rehabbed with all the bells and whistles- Well the appraiser went outside of the neighborhood even compared the house to other houses that weren't even similar and came up with the value and the house closed.The appraiser probably went for houses in similar condition to the tricked out house and probably didn't put the 230 house as a comp, it wasn't sold at the time so no way for them to say what it would sell for and they would have had to make too much of an adjustment if they used that comp.The thing is once you have a high value in the neighborhood then all other rehabs following that one now automatically have a comp even if the rehab was not as great as the original house.
