Appraisal Reviews with GED AppraisalAs 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 duty of appraisers engaged in reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." GED Appraisal provides appraisal review services that are unbiased, expert, professional and compliant with the Federal Reserve's regulations.The purpose of appraisal reviews are to detect: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is well-suited for the transaction, the liability inherit in the transaction, and whether the means by which the property valuation is accomplished ensures independence and quality. The review should also denote whether the appraisal or evaluation report is consistent with the letter of engagement, which sets forth the reach of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Fed also says 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".
