If you’re buying or selling a home in Queens or Long Island, here’s a quick insider tip from the LJ Realty Team 🗺️:

Some lenders may require two appraisals on certain home resales especially in “flip” transactions or when additional quality control checks (called overlays) come into play.


💡 What Does That Mean?

When a property is recently purchased, renovated, and quickly resold (often within 90–180 days), lenders sometimes flag it as a flip. To make sure the new sale price reflects real market value and not just cosmetic upgrades banks may ask for a second appraisal.


This process helps verify that the home’s value is supported by comparable sales and that both buyer and lender are fully protected.
