I partly disagree with calling any figure a negotiation ceiling. An appraiser can discuss evidence, uncertainty and assumptions, but the buyer’s limit also depends on financing and personal risk tolerance. There is another question here: who is commissioning the pre-offer appraisal, who may...

I would compare total cash paid over the same 10-year period, including lender fees, while also recording the balance still outstanding at year ten. APR is useful as a screening figure, but it can hide what matters if the offers have different fee structures or repayment schedules. Make the...
