Sale Prices Versus Appraised Value
Question: If the appraised value and the sale price of a home are different, which will lenders use when granting a mortgage?
Answer: Whichever is lower. Lenders want as little risk as possible, so they will look at both the sale price and the appraised value and then make a loan based on the lower of the two numbers.
