Posted: Mon Nov 26, 2007 5:06 am Post subject: What if one doesn't get Appraisal Report prior to Refinance? |
|
|
I am in the process of refinancing my mortgage for a property that I won in Michigan. But I'm in for the services of a lender who'd had his men do the appraisal. I thought, being the borrower I should be getting a copy of the appraisal . I haven't been refused but there has been no action taken on this part by the lender. Is there any agency where I can complain and make the lender send us proper documents in time so that later on I don't have to muddle with the law. _________________ Need help choosing the right loan?

Hi naomi,
Welcome to the forums.
I guess you are entitled to get a copy of your appraisal report. Why don't you call up the appraiser and directly get the report from them. I don't they'll deny. In case you don't get one, you might report it to the State Department of Banking and Finance. They may help you out.
Take Care |

Hi Naomi,
I think Sara is right. You are entitled to get a copy of the appraisal. The broker pr the lender requires providing you a copy of the appraisal. You should ask them to give you the copy; otherwise you can file a complaint with the state financial institutions department.
Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask if you have further questions.
Thanks,
Larry |

Eugene is correct.
You must call the lender as the appraiser actually works for them. You have a right to see the appraisal but again, the appraisal typically belongs to the lender. Thats right even though they probably required you to pay for it up front. _________________ Eric Matthews
