A subject-to-repairs appraisal requires a clearly defined hypothetical condition, repair scope, plans, specifications, or other information sufficient to understand the proposed work.
Repair-related appraisal assignments
These assignments are considered individually based on the property, intended use, available plans, repair details, client requirements, and the reliability of the supplied information.
