Q: How long is an FHA appraisal good for?

• <div><p>An FHA appraisal is valid for 180 days from the effective date of the report. In some cases, you can have the appraisal recertified if you make your request before the original expires so that you still may obtain an FHA loan. If approved, your appraisal update is valid for one year.</p></div>

Q: Are appraisals required for selling a property?

• <div><p>Appraisals are not mandatory but are helpful for pricing accuracy and negotiation purposes.</p></div>

Q: How much do you lose selling a house as-is?

However, it&rsquo;s often worthwhile to sell at a loss because the alternative would be to pay for the repairs yourself, which could end up costing you more.
