Hi Jenny,

If the lender only ordered a 'drive-by' appraisal they probably are not too worried about it not appraising (at least that's the only time I see drive-by appraisals requested). The loan to value ratio needs to be 80% or less to avoid paying PMI, but otherwise it depends on what type of loan you're getting. This is a question for your lender.

Make it a great day,

I'm not sure what the question is but if you need more information regarding the 203k loan (if that is what you are asking about) then feel free to contact me directly.

Good luck
