The nature of a home equity loan makes it difficult to obtain one without an appraisal. After all, a lender can't tell how much equity you have in your property without knowing the accurate value.
When you look into the type of property appraisals conducted in the market, you will see that they are of two types, FHA appraisal and Conventional Appraisal. Once you apply for an FHA loan, one of the loan requirements is that the home appraisal is done at a higher standard as compared to the conventional appraisal. The FHA loan has a minimum down payment requirement but conventional loan has a higher down payment requirement despite its lower standards. The conventional appraisal is based on the actual home value, which can be calculated by either the income method, the comparable sales method, or the cost method.
