GOLDEN RULE: Do no pay off debt with more debt, ever.

Appraisers are tea leaf readers, they don't know a thing and the banks know that. Good luck to you if you find a bank to give you that money.

One thing though.....are they repairs that would not pass an inspection on the home sale?? If that would be the case, the seller is the one you need to have fix the issues before signing the closing paperwork. If it's added stuff, talk to your mortgage lender and they can tell you if you do in fact qualify. Good Luck!!
