Question for Appraisers: “Tidewater Process”

I have a listing currently under contract and set to close in 2 days. The buyer’s lender let me know yesterday that the appraiser has called for the tidewater process (which I know about, but have never encountered). The appraiser did provide the comps they were using which some are similar to the ones I used. I was worried about a low appraisal on this one as there were competing offers and the buyer who won was pretty aggressive. I sent additional comps from a neighboring town (all sold, but I know they aren’t actually comps when not within a mile etc.) I guess my question is how low do VA appraisals typically come in when this happens? And are appraisers typically trying to get as close to the contract price as they can justify? I’m aware that they are meant to be unbiased, but I imagine they don’t want deals to fall completely apart etc. There are some unique features on this particular home that I’m not sure how they would adjust for given the comps in the area.

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...
