10 Tips to Prepare for your Home Appraisal in Indiana

main

You have an accepted purchase agreement, but you're concerned about the appraisal. What can you do to make it go smoothly? While you can't control outside factors such as other home sales in your area, there are a few things you can do to put your home in the best light possible.

  • Create a detailed list of the recent improvements, which should include the following: when completed, cost of the improvement, before and after pictures if available.
  • The appraiser is required to inspect each room so make sure each room is accessible.
  • If there is a crawl space, this area will also have to be made accessible for inspection for an FHA appraisal.
  • Make sure there is a clear pathway to the attic and that it is also accessible such that the appraiser can do a visual inspection for an FHA appraisal.

  • Give the appraiser room to do their job. Errors are more likely to occur when the appraiser isn't able to concentrate on their inspection.

  • Keep all pets restrained.
  • Have the name and phone number of the contact person available from your HOA if applicable.
  • Make sure your home is clean just as it would be for a showing. The appraiser will be taking pictures and the underwriter will be looking at them.
  • Complete any unfinished projects-most appraisals are done "as is", and any projects that haven't been completed, will have to be adjusted for within the appraisal report.
  • A copy of any agreements regarding easements (shared driveways and/or garages,etc.) should be made available.

Once the appraisal is complete there is little you can do but wait. If your Realtor has given you proper guidance on pricing and you listened, then most likely the sale will continue forward without a hitch. So do your best to be ready before the appraisal, controlling what you can, and you'll eliminate most if not all known and unknown obstacles.
