Doing a USDA appraisal. It has to meet the FHA standards so this seems the right place to put it.
The master bedroom has no windows! It has what appears to have been part of the front porch that was enclosed and made into an adjoining room. It is like a big closet 6 x 12? It's on the front of the house and it has a window in it. I suspect the door into this space was a window at one time.
Regardless the bedroom has no window in it. I know that a window is required for egress. So how do you handle these? Not count it as a bedroom?
I am supposed to write up all needed repairs but I don't know if this is a repair or not. Will check in with local office but wanted some input from here too.
