Do you have to have an appraisal?

As a buyer, seller, mortgagor (one who gives a mortgage as security for a loan; the borrower) or mortgagee (the party who advances funds for a mortgage loan; the lender) an appraisal is needed in order to be adequately informed about the subject real estate. Appraisals help potential buyers, sellers and mortgagors, and potential mortgagees make a decision. For example, an appraisal helps a buyer determine a reasonable offer for a home that is for sale. A lender will want to know if the subject property is valuable enough to cover the mortgage amount in the event of foreclosure.
