Post: wrong information in home appraisal report

Hi, I am buying a home, home appraisal is done, home appraisal report came $15k more than price I am paying.

But today when I was reading home appraisal report, I found some wrong information like it says porch/deck, but home doesn't has any porch or deck, roof is almost done so need to replace asap, but appraisal say 20 years life remaining , it says two refrigerator but it has only one etc.

In such case to who I (as a buyer) should contact to ask my questions like why it has wrong information.

Thanks

Hi, Just wondering, in case there is no active lease, like lease expired couple of years back.

So, right now we don't have any signed lease for active current period of time.

What that mean, Tenant can leave any time or has to give some notice, if yes then for how many days notice?

My question is specific to New Jersey state( in Bayonne, Newark, Jersey city etc).

Hi Friends @Deanna McCormick, @Darren Sager, @Account Closed

 one correction, I was reading last lease I got from landlord, however no body signed it.

it says "30 Days" notice, so it's not 1 month,

this mean I can give notice on Nov 4th and , vacate on Dec 4th, so I don't have to pay rent for entire month of December...right?

Hi @Darren Sager, it also depends how good you are as a tenant, I lived as a tenant for around 11 years, and almost never called landloard for any issue, tried to solve the issue by myself as more as possible. my landlord always feared "If I  left"

Thanks @Account Closed, then Landlord will start showing home to new expected tenants.

Can we limit him to start showing until we vacant or since December first, instead of almost 2 months.

Hi, 

We are almost done with our first home purchase, Lender told us that closing might be done in 2-3 weeks.

So, Just wondering, should I give notice now.

I am renting on month to month basis, with no active lease.

So, If I send landlord Notice/email on 11/03, that Sunday, December 04 will be my last day then will landlord will expect 4 days rent for December or for entire month.

Thanks

I am in Bayonne, NJ. I guess this should be generic same answer for whole country, not for North jersey like Newark, Jersey city, Union city etc.

I am being a first time buyer and has a habit of trusting every one easily.

So in my case in my original question is it normal or I have put exceptionally high amount?
