The question of whether an appraisal should be done before or after an inspection is one that often confuses home buyers and sellers. Both appraisals and inspections are important steps in the process of buying or selling a home, but they serve different purposes and are typically done at different times in the transaction.<\/p>\n

The appraisal typically comes before the inspection.<\/b> This is because the appraisal is generally required by a lender before approving a mortgage loan. The lender wants to ensure that the home is worth the amount they are lending, so they will order an appraisal to assess the property’s value. On the other hand, a home inspection is usually done after the appraisal, as it is more focused on the physical condition of the property rather than its market value.<\/p>\n
