The day just keeps getting better. The appraisal came in $30,000 BELOW their listing price.
What? So the only hope we have is to call the seller's bluff and talk him down to the actual appraised value.
It seems our bank is too conservative and completely ignores any internal upgrades whatsoever. Hardwood floors, tile, beautifully painted is the same as cheap carpet from Home Depot and vinyl flooring.
So I just wasted $600 on the inspection and appraisal.
Oh, and did I mention that the apartment I'm living at is spraying for rats, termites, and ants they found underneath the building today?
