sale and all, but was appraised for lower than the approved price listed in the contract, is there a way to get this reduced by the bank so I can close on this property? My attorney wrote to the sellers agent asking for a reduction in the sale price, and also submitted the appraisal report to her. I also have a mortgage committment for the appraised value, which I sent to the sellers agent, but which was not submitted to the bank, what can I do o expedite this deal?

The best thing to do is make sure your attorney writes to the bank along with copy of the current appraisal and asks for a price consideration. Make sure it goes to the attorney for the bank.
