"As a first time home buyer, I had no experience or knowledge as to purchasing a home. Kenny Babin was able to answer any question that I had. He showed different types of properties and made sure that I was able to make a decision using all the information available. Kenny Babin was courteous, professional and patient with my questions. I will definitely be calling him, should I ever need a realtor again!"

"When my wife and I were ready to choose a realtor to represent us in the purchase of a home, we contacted the Dave Ramsay organization for a list of their "endorsed local providers".  We were contacted immediately by Mr. Leo Desselle of Pennant Real Estate. After speaking to Leo and two other highly referred local realtors, we both felt very good about proceeding with Pennant Realty. We began the process in September, and closed on New Years Eve. Throughout the entire process, Leo was available, informative, proactive, knowledgeable, pleasant and patient. We could not be more pleased that we had the good fortune to go through this process with a professional as competent and kind as Mr. Desselle and Pennant Real Estate.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Foundation cracks won’t always affect your appraised value. All foundations crack due to normal settlement, so hairline cracks that aren’t leaking or uneven from side to side are unlikely to have an impact on your appraisal. Structural cracks, on the other hand, often lead to a reduced appraised value, especially if the underlying problem will cause the issue to worsen over time.

In cases where an appraisal comes in lower than an offer price, sellers might opt to lower their asking price to meet the appraisal, especially if the market is slow, and replacing the offer with a higher one may take a long time. Sellers can also offer to make repairs to boost the appraised value, hire another appraiser to get a second opinion, or just move on to another offer that isn’t contingent on the buyer getting a mortgage or an appraisal inspection.

As a seller, it might feel tempting to skip the appraisal, especially in a hot market that sees a lot of all-cash offers. While you can technically forgo it and hope for an all-cash offer, you’ll likely have a very tough time selling without an appraisal. 

In addition to protecting lenders from risk, appraisals also protect buyers’ investments. As such, it isn’t typically recommended for buyers to skip appraisals.

Both conventional loans and FHA loans are types of mortgages, but they have a few key differences. Conventional loans are backed by private lenders without any government backing, and FHA loans are guaranteed by a government agency. FHA loans are designed to be easier for borrowers with low credit scores or income to qualify for.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.
