Sequence of Events...
Hi all,
So we have found a property and are in contract. We have our documents filed with the bank for our mortgage and the appraisal is scheduled for this Sat. My question is that does the appraisal come before the commitment letter? Or can the commitment letter come before the appraisal because our loan officer said that she hopes to have our commitment letter before the end of the week but wouldn't they have to have the results from the appraisal back first?
Thanks in advance!!

Re: Sequence of Events...
I thought you wouldnt get your committment letter until the appraisal is done.

I am in a similar situation. Commitment received yesterday and appraiser will be going out on Monday. Commitment letter has the appraisal listed as a condition.

Re: Sequence of Events...
It depends on the bank. Often the commitment letter has conditions on it (one of which may be the appraisal). Obviously, the fewer conditions that are on the commitment, the sooner you will get the clear to close from the bank.
Good luck!
