Appraisal Reviews with Staton and Associates, LLCAs said in an announcement by the Federal Reserve (click here), "financial institutions must have an effective, independent real estate appraisal and evaluation program" and that appraisers completing reviews are obligated to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." At Staton and Associates, LLC, we provide appraisal review services that are unbiased, qualified, professional and square with the Federal Reserve's guidelines.The purpose of appraisal reviews are to verify: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is applicable for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the manners by which the collateral valuation is accomplished ensures independence and quality. The review should also signify whether the appraisal or evaluation report is consistent with the engagement letter, which gives an account of the extent of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Federal Reserve 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".
