Running some compatibles it should appraise between $265,000 and $285,000. i am looking to lower my interest rate get rid of my PMI and pull out around $50,000 to begin my investing journey....... it sounds great right ?? my only concern is back in 2016 i converted the master bed room and bathroom in to a studio (not permitted) with its own entrance and kitchen i sealed off the entrance to the main house and currently my parents live there paying me $500.00 a month i am worried that the studio will one hurt my appraisal (cant find any comps) so not sure what it will appraise at in its current state and second will the lenders have any issue's refinancing the home with the illegal studio ??? please any advise will help thank you..................
