Should I provide inspection reports to appraiser?

Pete Jimenez
Posted

Hello, BP! I am closing on a 4 plex and the inspections didn't come back the best. Termites, dry rot, fungal & and new roof needed. This isn't a deal breaker as the owner is willing to do repairs, fumigation &  new roof. 

My question is the following......

Should I provide the home appraiser with all the inspection reports? I want the appraisal to be fair but sometimes the appraiser doesn't know what's going on behind the walls. Also,  they aren't able to determine how much life is left on a roof. Or is this a bad idea?
