Experienced Appraisal Reviews by Express Appraisal Services

According to a statement by the Federal Reserve, "financial institutions are obligated to have an effective, unbiased real estate appraisal and evaluation program," and that appraisers completing reviews should "have the proficiency and expertise to determine compliance with the Federal Reserves appraisal regulations and guidelines." If you're looking for appraisal review services that are independent, expert, professional and in line with the Federal Reserve's guidelines, look no further than Express Appraisal Services.

Appraisal reviews "should conclude whether the appraisal or evaluation is well-suited for the transaction, the danger of the transaction, and whether the procedure by which the collateral valuation is obtained ensures independence and quality," as stated by the Federal Reserve. They "must also demonstrate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is even with the letter of engagement, which describes the extent of the appraisal assignment." Last, The Federal Reserve states that "some banks add typical reviews with post-funding evaluations of appraisal quality for some of their higher-risk or high-value transactions as a control to help in addressing valuation complications."

In addition to conforming our work to the regulations and guidelines of our review clients, there are four Fannie Mae forms that are usually used for review services, and we can prepare an appraisal review on any one of them. They include an appraisal "desk" review, a "field" review, a "short" form and a "narrative" form.
