An as-is appraisal reflects the property in its actual condition as of the effective date, including deferred maintenance, incomplete work, damage, dated improvements, or other observed characteristics.
Current-condition value analysis
The appraisal considers how buyers react to the property as it currently exists rather than assuming repairs or renovations have been completed.

Are repair costs deducted dollar-for-dollar?
Not necessarily. Market reaction to condition may differ from the estimated cost of repairs and must be analyzed using relevant market evidence.
