How long does a VA appraisal take?<\/h2>\n
For VA home loans<\/a>, the administration provides qualified appraisers with a set of VA appraisal timeliness guidelines, which range between 7 and 21 business days. In most cases, \u200b\u200bthe process is typically completed within 10 business days.<\/p>\n \u201cEvery county has its own standard timeframe set by the VA,\u201d explains Warren B. Boizot<\/a>, owner of BLG Appraisal Group in Denver, Colorado. \u201cThe four counties that I cover for the VA all happened to be seven business days. I have colleagues and appraiser friends who handle rural areas or mountain areas for the VA, and sometimes they’re more like 10 or 15 business days.\u201d<\/p>\n It\u2019s important to note that the VA appraisal timeliness guidelines are not \u201cdeadlines.\u201d They serve as a useful reference so buyers can estimate how long the process might take, but they are not considered an absolute mandate.<\/p>\n
