Can the appraiser fix these errors and re-submit to the lender before we do the final close?
You said you already closed so its a done deal. Not sure what you are asking.
The appraiaser goes by LENDER requirements for your LENDER loand, and some thing on the lender appraisal may not be what you expect, ie appraisers DONT count patios, but patios are included in buliding plans. Many amenties are assumed and taken in to consideration in apppraisals but arent readily apparent to readers of appraisals.
If the appraisal came back as the same, thats how the lender wants it. If you dont like the value the lender is giving you,get a new lender. The appraiser - in this case- works for the lender.
He is going to go do measurements for me to get the actual square footage, but is not sure if he can re-submit the correction to the lender without them asking for it.
The lender wont accept it after the fact, but its nice the appraiser is going to re-measure for you. . . .
