Appraisal ReviewsAs said in a statement by the Federal Reserve (click here), "financial institutions must have an effective, independent real estate appraisal and evaluation program" and that it's the obligation of appraisers preparing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." At Fort Neck Real Estate Appraisal, Inc., we provide appraisal review services that are impartial, expert, professional and square with the Federal Reserve's regulations.
A review appraisal should reveal: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is relevant for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the method by which the collateral valuation is acquired ensures independence and quality. They must also signify whether the appraisal or evaluation report is in line with the letter of engagement, which sets forth the depth of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Federal Reserve also notes that "some banks supplement routine reviews with post-funding evaluations of appraisal quality for some of their higher-risk or greater-value transactions as a control to assist in detecting valuation problems".
In addition to adjusting our work to the practices and guidelines of our review clients, there are four Fannie Mae forms that are generally used for review services, and we can produce an appraisal review on any of them. They include an appraisal "desk" review, a "field" review, a "short" form and a "narrative" form.
