Refinancing our House

This was supposed to be easy. All we needed left was the appraisal. The appraiser they sent rated our house as average and listed a multitude of repairs, none of which actually affect the house as a serviceable dwelling. We are being given a list of things to fix and a new appraisal next week but it's going to be a busy week. I have to scrape and repaint some especially chippy sections, paint a room inside and clean up the back yard. I just hope I can get my family behind me.
