Summary
Low appraisals are one of the biggest deal killers in real estate right now.
In this video, I break down what actually causes a bad appraisal — and what you can do before and after it happens.
Here’s what most people get wrong:
• They don’t provide comps upfront
• They don’t communicate with the appraiser
• They don’t prep the property properly
• They wait until the appraisal comes in low
By then, you’re playing defense.
I also cover:
• How the appraisal process actually works
• What you can (and can’t) say to an appraiser
• How to properly rebuttal a low appraisal
• Why working with the right lender matters
