Competent Appraisal Reviews with Schaeffer Appraisal Services
As 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 call of appraisers engaged in reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines."
Schaeffer Appraisal Services provides appraisal review services that are objective, expert, professional and compliant with the Federal Reserve's guidelines.
The purpose of appraisal reviews are to verify: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is pertinent for the transaction, the risk inherit in the transaction, and whether the actions by which the property valuation is rendered ensures independence and quality.
The review should also signify whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the letter of engagement, which gives an account of the reach of the appraisal assignment.
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".
