[quote=sdrealtor]From what I heard there was a massive onslaught in early March. Not sure how long they took but it was a while. They couldn’t do on site appraisals for a while. Much better last couple months[/quote]
Ah, that might be it. Ours didn’t require an appraisal. The notary still had to come out, though. At any rate, ours is just 1 data point, so it might not have been the norm.
