In this video, I break down exactly how the VA appraisal waiver works, when to use it, and what to expect. ✅ What we cover: What a VA appraisal waiver is and when you can request one Common repair items that come up (peeling paint, cracked sidewalks, handrails) and how to handle them The difference between an "as-is" vs. "subject to" VA appraisal How to omit external structures (barns, garages) from the appraisal — and why that can backfire VA minimum property requirements and what they actually mean for your transaction Escrow holdbacks as an alternative when waivers aren't approved Why water and septic issues are a different story Real example: cracked sidewalk waiver approved in 48 hours 💡 The VA appraisal gets a bad reputation — but knowing these tools can keep your deal alive when repair issues pop up. ► ► Get Pre-Approved With My Team → https://bit.ly/ApplyToday_VA ► ► Get Your Certificate of Eligibility → https://bit.ly/COEreview 🏦 FREE Loan Estimate REVIEW → https://bit.ly/EstimateReview -- Disclaimer -- DISCLAIMER: The content of VA Housing Education/VA Housing Education at Waterman Bank Channel is for educational purposes only.
