Appraisal Reviews with Apple Valley Appraisal

According to an announcement by the Federal Reserve, "financial institutions must have an effective, objective real estate appraisal and evaluation plan," and that appraisers doing reviews should "have the familiarity and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserves appraisal regulations and guidelines." Apple Valley Appraisal provides appraisal review services that are unbiased, efficient, professional and square with the Federal Reserve's rules.

If you need a real estate appraisal review or have questions in reference to an appraisal, contact Apple Valley Appraisal today.

Appraisal reviews "ought to conclude whether the appraisal or evaluation is applicable for the transaction, the danger of the transaction, and whether the method by which the collateral valuation is accomplished ensures independence and quality," as stated by the Federal Reserve. Moreover, they "must indicate whether the appraisal or evaluation report matches the engagement letter, which sets forth the scope of the appraisal assignment." Lastly, the Federal Reserve states that "some institutions supplement typical reviews with post-funding assessments of appraisal quality for some of their high-risk or large-value affairs as a means to aid in addressing valuation complications."
