Appraisal Reviews with Craig Gehm Appraisals

According to 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 prudent for appraisers performing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." At Craig Gehm Appraisals, we provide appraisal review services that are unbiased, expert, professional and in accordance with the Federal Reserve's regulations.

A review appraisal should detect: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is suitable for the transaction, the liability inherit in the transaction, and whether the methods by which the real estate valuation is accomplished guarantees independence and quality. They must also demonstrate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is true to the letter of engagement, which describes the range 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".

If you need a real estate appraisal review or have questions in reference to an appraisal, call Craig Gehm Appraisals today.
