Mortgage Insiders know: Appraisal reports are changing, but a longer report doesn’t automatically mean there’s a problem.
Beginning November 2nd, 2026, conventional appraisals will include more structured property information. Additions, ADUs, converted spaces and discrepancies with public records may receive a closer look.
For buyers, sellers and real estate agents, the takeaway is simple: share unusual property details early. More information upfront can mean fewer surprises later.
