🏡 Inspection vs. Appraisal: What's the Difference?
These two steps are both important during the home buying process, but they serve very different purposes.
🔍 Inspection = Evaluates the condition of the home and identifies potential issues or repairs.
💰 Appraisal = Determines the home's market value for the lender.
One helps you understand what you're buying. The other helps determine what it's worth.
Whether you're buying your first home or your fifth, understanding the process can help you make confident decisions every step of the way.
