Who orders it

Who orders a refinance appraisal?

For the loan itself, the lender does, usually through an appraisal management company, and Tyler completes the report to the lender's requirements and USPAP. If you only want to know your value before you apply, you can order a private appraisal from Tyler.

Refinance and PMI removal questions

Common questions

Will an appraisal definitely get my PMI removed?

No. The appraisal sets the value; your servicer compares it with the loan balance and applies its own rules.

Can I order my own appraisal for a refinance?

Not for the loan, because the lender orders that one. For your own planning, Tyler can appraise the home before you apply.

How fast can you turn it around?

In 2025 Tyler's reports averaged 5.9 days, all on or before the promised date.
