Well, since you are calling your structure a "residential structure" I wanted to add a few citations for consideration.
Remember, the appraisal delivery rule applies to a dwelling, which is defined in 1002.14(b)(2) as a "residential structure that contains one to four units whether or not that structure is attached to real property. The term includes, but is not limited to, an individual condominium or cooperative unit, and a mobile or other manufactured home."
Unfortunately, the 2013 final rule isn't extremely clear on what they mean by "residential structure," as all it says is this: The definition of “dwelling†in § 1002.14(c) requires that the unit be a “residential structureâ€, but does not require that it be “owner-occupied.†As a result, the requirements of the final rule can apply to transactions involving one-to-four-unit residential structures that may be business or commercial in nature, including for investment purposes. Beyond this, whether a transaction meets the definition will depend on the facts and circumstances. Because transaction structures can vary widely, the Bureau does not believe it would be efficient or appropriate to try to address all such variations in the text of the rule or the commentary.
Without all of the "facts and circumstances" I'm not sure we can fully determine whether the structure is a "residential structure" that would be subject to the rules. Therefore, if you think your structure is a "residential structure," the conservative approach would be to comply with 1002.14.
