What happens during the property inspection?

The appraiser may measure the home, take photographs and note its layout, condition and features, depending on the agreed scope. Let us know about locked rooms, tenants or other access limits before the visit, and ask which areas need to be available.

Will I receive a copy of the appraisal report?

Before ordering, confirm who will receive the report and who may rely on it. Those details depend on who engages the appraiser and the purpose of the assignment. If an attorney, lender or family member also needs a copy, raise that at the start.
