Did a FHA appraisal a month ago and this morning get a request to change the FHA #. I have had this before. I can't think of reason why this would be necessary and whether I should change it or not. If they are required to get the FHA # before they order the appraisal how can they change one after they get the appraisal?
 
Called HUD and they said the new FHA # was issued after the effective date. I would need to do another appraisal with a new effective date. Reinspect and new pics of comps. Sent a message to this effect to the lender.
 
Yeah....what HUD said....

Did they put that in writing? I am not so sure about that. I bet if you called them again you would get a different answer. Something sounds fishy. Get it in writing. If they say it is ok then do it their way. I would also note in the addendum the change of the FHA case #. Put the old one in the addendum to CYA.
 
Remember to report the "prior service"

Agree....CYA.

And why would you need to take new comp pics? Assuming you're using the same ones.
