If a house is listed for $150,000 and the buyer gets it for $145,000 but then wants to add in the 6% for seller concessions to bring it up to $153,700. If it appraises for $153,700 do FHA lenders have a problem with the purchase price being higher than the listing? It is really just an example of bad negotiating, but I want to be safe. Can this be an issue with FHA lenders?

It shouldn't be a problem, as long as it Appriases-out, for the full amount. You need to make sure you are also showing that Closing Costs are included. I just put it right on the GFE: "Closing Costs...$$$"

I agree, as long as the appraisal amt is greater than or equal to the loan amt. There should be no prob!
