QUESTION: I recently listed a home where I measured the square footage and included that number in the MLS. When the buyer’s appraisal came back, the appraiser reported a smaller square footage. The buyer’s agent is now accusing me of making a misrepresentation and is demanding the purchase price be reduced. 

What am I supposed to do to address this discrepancy, and does a seller have to reduce the price?
