Appraisal ReviewsAccording to an announcement by the Federal Reserve, "financial institutions are obligated to have an effective, unbiased real estate appraisal and evaluation plan," and that appraisers fulfilling reviews are obligated to "have the ability and skills to assess compliance with the Federal Reserves appraisal regulations and guidelines." JML Appraisal Services provides appraisal review services that are independent, expert, professional and in accordance with the Federal Reserve's guidelines. ![]() If you have questions about an appraisal, or if you need a real estate appraisal review, call JML Appraisal Services today. Appraisal reviews "should decide whether the appraisal or evaluation is fitting for the transaction, the uncertainty of the transaction, and whether the manners by which the collateral valuation is accomplished guarantees independence and quality," according to the Federal Reserve. They "should also demonstrate whether the appraisal or evaluation report matches the engagement letter, which describes the range of the appraisal assignment." The Federal Reserve also notes that "some financial institutions supplement typical reviews with post-funding evaluations of appraisal quality for any of their high-liability or greater-value dealings as a means to help in revealing valuation dilemmas." In addition to conforming our work to the practices and guidelines of our review clients, there are four Fannie Mae forms that are primarily used for review services, and we will develop an appraisal review on any of them. They include an appraisal "desk" review, a "field" review, a "short" form and a "narrative" form.
