Just had an appraisal on my house after about 2 years and a housing market that we all know tanked. Only lost 7 grand from the initial appraisal. I feel like I lucked out.

appraised value does not always equal market value

If you lost 7k at the casino it would not be a good thing.

I know, plus you never really gain/lose money until you get out of the market. But they partly base it off what is selling in the neighborhood on comp properties.


I know my old neighbor who bought their house for 600k and change is looking at like 150k loss.

Zillow isn't very accurate.. plus the bank doesn't care what they think when refinancing
