Obtaining an accurate home appraisal for bankruptcy purposes is essential, as it determines your property’s fair market value. It’s crucial to have an experienced certified appraiser conduct the appraisal, as significant discrepancies in your home’s value can lead to complications during the bankruptcy process. If the property value is listed too low, there’s a risk that the trustee may object to the scheduled valuation and potentially request the court’s permission to seize your home.

Moreover, an obviously understated value can raise questions about your honesty, truthfulness, and credibility in future proceedings with the bankruptcy judge, trustee, and opposing counsel. Conversely, if the property value is listed too high, you may miss the opportunity for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or end up repaying more than necessary in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
