A lot of lenders will require an appraisal during the mortgage process to determine the fair market value of a property. This ensures you’re not paying more for a home than it’s worth on a purchase transaction and verifies the amount of equity available on a refinance transaction. Home values are constantly changing depending on buyer demand and the local market. Typically, home values increase over time. Contact a South Carolina lender to learn more about local requirements for mortgages.
