Will appraisal be affected?
My wife and I have found a nice older home that the previous owner has done a sub par renovation on. We plan to do a complete remodel like we have in the past with success. The house has wood paneling throughout that we don’t rip out due to there being new interior doors and crown mounding already installed. I’ve talked with a drywall professional that has had success with filling in the cracks and making the paneling appear to be drywall. I would make it know when selling that it was paneling and not drywall. My question is how much will this affect the appraisal? Looking at around 7k to rip it all out and replace with drywall, plus 3-4 weeks of labor. Any advice? 3 bedroom 2 bath in north MS. Will sell around the 130k range.
