Competent Appraisal Reviews by T.R. Moore & Associates, Inc.As said in an announcement by the Federal Reserve (click here), "financial institutions must have an effective, independent real estate appraisal and evaluation program" and that it's the expectation of appraisers completing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." At T.R. Moore & Associates, Inc., we provide appraisal review services that are independent, expert, professional and square with the Federal Reserve's guidelines.A review appraisal should determine: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is appropriate for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the processes by which the property valuation is accomplished guarantees independence and quality. In addition, they should signify whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the letter of engagement, which gives an account of the range of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Fed also states 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 adapting our work to the regulations and guidelines of our review customers, there are four Fannie Mae forms that are generally used for review services, and we'll produce an appraisal review on any one of them. They include an appraisal "desk" review, a "field" review, a "short" form and a "narrative" form. Here at T.R.
