Your ears must be burning about the praises sung in your direction! The settlement went without a hitch, which we know is largely due to your diligence and knowledge throughout the process and in preparation for the settlement. Settlement day should be about the excitement of a new house and plans for the future. In our case, it definitely was — because the details of the closing had been worked out far in advance. To lock in to that great interest rate and trust that all i's are dotted and t's are crossed is really a means of satisfaction. Thanks for doing what you do — and caring so much. You're a consummate professional. I wish I could buy more houses to work with you more!

Appraisal ordered

We have ordered the appraisal. The appraiser, using recent comparable sales, will let us know what the value of the home is. The requirements are usually that the ‘comps’ be no older than 3 months, but sometimes due to a lack of data the appraiser uses older comps. The final value is determined by looking at square footage, numbers of bedrooms and bathrooms, condition, location, parking, floor plan, fireplaces, lot size, and more. The value of a home is ultimately what a buyer is willing to pay for it. That value must be justified to the bank providing the financing, which is done with an appraisal. We will let you know when the appraisal is in, and what the value is. You will ultimately get a copy of the appraisal from us.
