VA Appraisal Fuckery in Illinois. Am I being paranoid?

In the middle of purchasing a house with a VA loan which requires a VA appraisal. My understanding is that the appraiser writes their report and submits it to our lender and us.

What’s happening that has me concerned is that the seller’s realtor and the VA appraiser (paid by me) have agreed to share the info and submit fixes before she files her report to avoid having to do another appraisal if fixes are required. This seemed very backwards and unethical as I will not know if any fixes were required if they’re not in the appraisers submitted report.

Is this business as usual or should I be worried?

Also this is coming off the heels of the sellers taking no action on any of the contractually agreed upon fixes found during the regular home inspection done 30 days ago (septic replacement, wiring issues, water abatement) even though closing is in 11 days. They have work lined up but no start or completion dates set.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
