Recently put a fixer upper under contract. I was all sent to close when my lender calls me to tell me that they are not going to finance the property because the appraiser labeled the property " below average" . This is not the first fixer upper I've financed with this company but apparently they are getting tougher. My loan is for $59000. The lenders own appraisal stated the property " as is value" is $91,000, so there is plenty of equity in the property. ARV of property is approx. $110,000. The property is in Arlington Texas, in a very nice area. Has anyone else had the same problem and does anyone know of a lender who works quickly and would be willing to loan on such a property. Thanks.
