"So Mr/Ms...etc; are you aware that we cannot proceed with your loan without
an appraisal?"

Are you getting objections related to the ability to pay for the appraisal? Or just not wanting to pay regardless of if money is an issue?

I usually just explain to the customer that the appraiser is a third party service provider meaning they are not employed by the bank or myself so they collect there fee at the door.

"Lenders like Rock Financial, CW, charge an application fee, regardless if they can do your loan. These fees are about $500. We think we can get your loan done based upon the information you have told us. We need an appraisal, the appraiser would like his/her money upfront. If we cannot get your loan done, or if another lender can get you a better deal, we will ask appraiser to recert to your lender. The most important factor in our area is value,especially being in a declining market.We must know what your house is worth.

I have closed a couple loans (refi's) where I know they don't have the money (I have the bank statements) and just required 1/2 at the door and put the rest in the loan. It all depends on the situation.

Mr. and Mrs. Customer, If you can't pay for an appraisal, what makes me think you can pay for a house?

i tell them that you'll end up paying more if the appraisal gets paid at closing... but i really like the "golden rule" and the "if you cant afford an appraisal fee...." lines

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Client, You and I have similar problems.....I do not like paying for sex, but much like your problem with paying for the appraisal, no funds upfront means no closing the deal in the end.
