Getting a second opinion on an appraisal
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
appraisers fulfilling reviews ought to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines."
ALLIED REAL ESTATE APPRAISERS, INC. provides appraisal review services that are impartial, efficient, professional and in line with the Federal Reserve's regulations.
A review appraisal should ascertain: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is well-suited for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the methods by which the collateral valuation is rendered guarantees independence and quality.
In addition, they must demonstrate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is true to the engagement letter, which sets forth the capacity of the appraisal assignment.
Lastly, the Federal Reserve also notes 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".
