How Should I Prepare For An Appraisal Inspection?

Here are a few tips to help expedite the appraisal inspection:

• Provide a list of any improvements you've made to the home with the approximate dates.
• Remove any obstacles that will impede the appraiser's ability to measure the exterior of the home.
• Be sure the appraiser has clear access to your attic and crawl space.
• Restrain your pets and clear the yard of "hazards".
• Keep in mind that the appraiser will take photos of each room to be included in the report.
• If you have a manufactured home, have any paperwork on the home handy.
