Do not base decision on tax appraisal value, other than can you afford the taxes on that appraisal value.

I would care more what the BANK appraised the house for, not the tax collector. The bank number influences interest rates, PMI and other factors which cost you money every month.

We're working with 3rd federal and I know once we get the blue prints we have to give a copy for their appraising as well. But isn't the interest rate already predetermined? PMI wouldn;t be an issue as we're putting over 20%.
