Experienced Appraisal Reviews with Wood AppraisalAccording 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 doing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Wood Appraisal provides appraisal review services that are independent, qualified, professional and in accordance with the Federal Reserve's regulations.A review appraisal should find out: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is fitting for the transaction, the liability inherit in the transaction, and whether the practices by which the property valuation is accomplished guarantees independence and quality. The review must also announce whether the appraisal or evaluation report is true to the letter of engagement, which gives an account of the range 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".
