ASAP Appraisal, LLC Appraisal ReviewsAs stated in an announcement by the Federal Reserve (click here), "financial institutions must have an effective, independent real estate appraisal and evaluation program" and that appraisers completing reviews are obligated to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." At ASAP Appraisal, LLC, we provide appraisal review services that are impartial, efficient, professional and in line with the Federal Reserve's regulations.A review appraisal has to verify: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is fitting for the transaction, the risk inherit in the transaction, and whether the procedure by which the real estate valuation is obtained ensures independence and quality. They must also denote whether the appraisal or evaluation report is consistent with the letter of engagement, which describes the reach of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Fed goes on to say 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".
