Hi all, has anyone here ever being asked to have an appraisal done in their house as part of requirements for aos and greencard application? I know over hundreds of immigrants but have never heard of this except from the lawyer of a friend.  According to the poverty guidelines you need to make about $34k for a household of 4.

My friend has his own business and makes way more than that also have 100k on savings  but aside from a bank statement and itr his lawyer advise him to get his house appraised to show equity of his house. Is this really necessary?

If he can document that much income and savings, there is no need to get his home appraised.

The I-864 form instructions state that there's no need to use assets if the sponsor's income is more than enough to qualify.  Sounds like your friend's lawyer is making busywork to justify how much your friend is paying him.
