LEGAL & ETHICS

HOTLINE Q&A

Republished from TN Realtors®

The Digest: 9/5/2022

Waiving Appraisal Contingency

 

Q: If a buyer is getting a 20% conventional loan on a contract and waives the appraisal contingency and the appraisal comes back below the purchase price, does that affect financing?

 

A: IF a buyer waives the appraisal contingency, they cannot then use failure to appraise as basis for loan denial and exercise the financing contingency. So, in practicality, the buyer would then be responsible to cover the amount the lender will not finance or be in default of the contract.
