Appraisal Fee after backing out
Hi Community,
I have a questions regarding the appraisa fee. I was supposed to close for a property, but ended up backing out. The lender did the appraisal. But since I’m canceling the deal, do I still have to pay for this appraisal fee?

Yes typically the buyer is on the hook for the appraisal. The appraiser did the appraisal, he must be paid. You cancelling the deal is irrelevant.
