Hello Everyone !
We are doing a FHA appraisal on a semi-detached property. There is a fence in the backyard that divides the two properties which appears to be totally on the neighbor's side, not the subject's side. The wooden fence has massive amounts of chipped and peeling paint, is probably a foot from the subject's yard and very accessable to any children that could be living in the subject property.
Although I cannot call for the paint repair on the neighbor's fence, do you think I should note it somewhere in the appraisal, whether it be in a text addendum or on the Homebuyers Summary? Or not to worry about it....... I guess you get so concerned with liability, that I'm wondering if this would be something to address somewhere in the report.
As always, thanks in advance for any and all input!
