Good morning Khash - this is a problem for many but with prices coming more into line hopefully we won't see as many.

I recently had a VA appraisal come in short, we sent comparables which didn't change the appraisal (the appraiser did a great job, no fault of his), and the buyer wound up covering the gap. So yes, VA buyers CAN pay for the shortage.

By the way, how many different band shirts do you have? :-)

@Kat, Thank you for the insight on the VA deal. Many agents think that "The VA" does not allow a buyer to cover appraisal shortages (which is incorrect).  In regards to my shirts, I never wore a band EVER, but then I got onto a roll at my Zoom Webinars and now I have an absolute ton. They have to be 80's bands (or John Denver or Kenny Rogers, lol).

I never bought concert T-shirts, Khash Saghafi NMLS but if I did, I'd have Peter Frampton, Heart, Leonard Skynard, ZZ Top, Steve Ray Vaughan, Andrea Boccelli, Pink Floyd, Journey, Paul McCartney, Rod Stewart, Van Morrison, and a bunch of others. The 70s was my era!

Now those are some bands Kat Palmiotti!! Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble were incredible. You had other ones too, but I am a child of the 80's, lol.
