I think there's a lesson here for all sellers this year. If you don't have to sell, wait another year because the real estate market's prior couple of years is impacting appraisals right now. I am probably going to wait now, after seeing this problem cropping up pretty regularly.

I think they are just playing by math rules and actual comps vs factoring in what everyone assumes will be future appreciation and wishful pricing
but you are right
if you want to be sure your home will appraise for more you probably should wait
the problem might come if the market slows down and the buyers have more negotiation weight
