I had my home appraised last June for divorce purposes. $305. Had it done again just last week for refinancing purposes, $306. The market here is not bad. At the same time I know areas like Michigan are getting killed.
Also I had no problem getting financing. I do have excellent credit, and a lot of equity in the house though.
What does get my goat is... Isn't one of the reasons the Fed kept dropping the prime to stimulate the housing market? Yet bank rates, at least a few locally, rose after the last one vs. going down, doesn't make sense to me.
