when does the bank's appraiser come?

At what point during the purchase process does the bank send the appraiser? Before or after contract?

Is it possible to change your mortgage type at that time?

Example - You opt for an 80/10 mortgage over a 90% mortgage with PMI. If the house appraises for so much that you could have gotten away without PMI, will your lender allow you to take the full amount as a regular mortgage without PMI or the need to take the loan as 2 separate mortgages?

Our appraisal was done after the contract.

I'm not sure about the answer to your other question though, sorry!

Ours was after the contract but before the mortgage committment, since the appraisal will help to determine what type and amount of mortgage we can get.

We are able to change the type of mortgage anytime up until closing.
