Getting a second opinion on an appraisal

As 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 it's the responsibility of appraisers doing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." At Midlands Appraisal Group, LLC, we provide appraisal review services that are impartial, qualified, professional and compliant with the Federal Reserve's regulations.

A review appraisal should pursue: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is well-suited for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the actions by which the real estate valuation is attained ensures independence and quality. Moreover, they must demonstrate whether the appraisal or evaluation report matches the letter of engagement, which describes the capacity of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Federal Reserve 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".
