I just went under contract for a new home its my first home and the seller paid the 12k closing cost so I had to bring nothing to the table when closing comes which is great. this channel has helped me out to get through the process without fear
Another huge benefit to a VA appraisal is that appraisal sticks with the property for 6 months. That also covers FHA. so, if your appraisal comes in low, the seller is leveraged to deal with the buyer because if not, they are pretty much forced to only go with conventional.
Thanks for the comment! You're right. This used to be the case as VA appraisals would say "to any qualified veteran" now there in the name of the Veteran so any veteran can go into a home and get a new VA appraisal.
Great video! I've been looking for something like this since I was told that mortgage lenders don't like VA loans because the appraisals are so stringent.
I stumbled upon your channel recently and subscribed. Your videos are informational and really great to see someone has a strong focus in helping veterans. Thank you!
I love this video, very detailed and gave me a lot of good information. I wish I would’ve seen this before I purchased my home. I used the VA loan process and after moving in I found out that the VA appraisal was done incorrectly and I’m trying to figure out what to do next. I’ve contacted probably every entity I can think of and no one has a clear path. It’s going to be a year now and my home apparently never met the VA MPRs. What are some suggestions? And, I will be honest, no one told me how the process worked. They just told me to trust the VA appraiser and assured me that the home would be at value, safe, sanitary, and structurally sound.
The VA appraisal has made me nervous about this process becoming ive heard they are very strict. But this video has made me feel more positive about it
Hi. What if the veteran is wanting to buy a home that is a little bit of a fixer upoer. Say needs paint or drywall, maybe floor or roof needs some work. Is the veteran going to be turned down on a home loan via a bad appraisal for these kinds of things?
Hi Jon! Thanks for the comment. Not necessarily. VA will be looking to ensure that the property is safe, sound, and secure. As long as you check those 3 boxes you will not have any issues.
Hello Jorge, good question. Typically once they have the plans, renderings, schematics, and bid they should be able to appraise the property on a TBD format.
Hi Jimmy, amazing video, it was very informative! I do have a question for you. Do VA loans still get approved for the pre approved loan amount if the appraisal comes in at or above that value but less than the overall purchase price of the home? I know for conventional loans, it’s a situation where the buyer would need to cover the difference, renegotiate the price or walk away. However I am getting conflicting information regarding VA loans that the loan will not be approved even if the appraisal is higher than the pre approved loan amount but less than purchase price for the property. I would really appreciate your feedback, thanks so much.
Hi Tisha - great question. So here's the deal the lender will only approve the purchase price, or appraised value, (whichever is less). If there is a shortfall the Veteran does have the option to cover the difference.
Came across this channel by chance. Can’t appreciate your information enough. We are in the process of purchasing a home in GA. I am a little concerned (and the seller too) that the driveway is gonna fail the appraisal. What’s your experience with having a driveway cause a lender/seller to back out?
My debt to income ratio isn't great but I own alot of assets and real estate with no mortgages. I want to refinance a house I have in my llcs name for a primary residence. The house is worth 375k to 400k and I'm looking to get about 300k in the refinance and then pay off the hard money loan (175k) with the refinance . Any advice or thoughts? Thanks Jimmy great video!
Hey Farm Boi - That sounds like that could possibly be done. I would need to learn more about your scenario by reviewing tax returns among other items. Best thing to do would be to contact my office at 602-908-5849 along with emailing me at jimmy@valoansforvets.com
I have a question for Jay, how does a VA appraiser go about an appraisal for a home that has a private spring water system that is the only means of water to the home?
That's a good question. I would actually have you reach out to the VA directly for that type of question. You can email 'cvgc.vbapho@va.gov' CVGC.vbapho@va.gov
Hi, when does the appraisal comes in? During the purchase process or after? Because, if there are some things that need to be addressed , we need a frame time. Thanks
Hello Jose, the appraisal comes in durning the escrow process typically within 7-10 business days after order. This should give you time to address any would be issues with the appraisal in advance of your closing. Please let me know if I can answer any other questions.
How do you get a VA inspector? I paid for a home Insp- they called out a water leak...potentially mold in a restroom subfloor... How does it get inspected?
Can a va appraisal flag a federal pacific electric panel as a hard " no"? Im looking at home with FPE, and seller said its working because it has 200 amp service. Will the va appraiser report give me leverage with seller? Also home has 29 year old furnace but has been maintained well. Will the furnace be an issue. If I'm trying to get my earnest money back, but I'll need leverage
My VA appraisal has taken over 30 days since it was started. I’m trying to get information from lender but they are saying sometimes it takes this long. What should I do?
So if the property is not up to snuff does this stop the buyer or the seller or both? EX How could a vet buy a homestead with a VA loan if it's neglected/abandoned/needs work, is there another way? Thanks
How much generally is cost of VA appraisal and for an ROV VA appraisal in Texas circa 2022-2023. And is there a time limit to request an ROV from the time of receiving a totally poor appraisal.
Good question, VA appraisal will typically vary from state to state. I would anticipate you would be around $600.00 or so. You'll want to request the ROV asap and not delay that.

@@JimmyVercellino are you licensed in Florida? I need help
@@thisfloridagirl5280 yes - we’re licensed to lend in FL and I can personally assist.
What about homes that have non permitted additions.
Good question. The appriaser will not give non permitted addtions any value.

Hi Jon! Thanks for the comment. Not necessarily. VA will be looking to ensure that the property is safe, sound, and secure. As long as you check those 3 boxes you will not have any issues.
How early in the process of construction(meaning before completion) can the Va appraiser do the actual appraisal?
Hello Jorge, good question. Typically once they have the plans, renderings, schematics, and bid they should be able to appraise the property on a TBD format.
@@JimmyVercellino jimmy thank you for answering my question.

I just got a regular appraisal, how could I get someone like out in SoCal to appraise my house ? Thanks in advance for the intel. Been a great value .
Happy to hear. VA will assign a contracted appraiser to appraise the home.
Hi, when does the appraisal comes in?
During the purchase process or after?

How do you get a VA inspector? I paid for a home Insp- they called out a water leak...potentially mold in a restroom subfloor... How does it get inspected?
The VA appriaser will likely be able to detect this.
What if the roof is 30 yrs old? Or a 24 yr old hot water heater?
good question. As long as it's in working order there shouldn't be an issue.
0:55 yep
thanks for watching!

The appraiser will not comment on electrical issues. Electricity must be turned on at the time of inspection.
My VA appraisal has taken over 30 days since it was started. I’m trying to get information from lender but they are saying sometimes it takes this long. What should I do?
I would contact that VA Logan. Where are you located? Try reaching out to the VA direct at this email cvgc.vbapho@va.gov
1:55 Joseph’s appraisal group
He's the man!
Is a musty basement a health hazard?
It could be called out by an appraiser and could be an item considered conducive to infestation (excessive moisture).
So if the property is not up to snuff does this stop the buyer or the seller or both? EX How could a vet buy a homestead with a VA loan if it's neglected/abandoned/needs work, is there another way? Thanks
Hi - if there are VA repairs needed those will always need to be cleared prior to moving forward.

Amen!

Is this appraisal process also used for those refinancing from another loan to VA?
Yes, that's correct.
