Quality Appraisal Reviews by Crandall Appraisal ServiceAs 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 appraisers performing reviews have to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Crandall Appraisal Service provides appraisal review services that are independent, qualified, professional and in accordance with the Federal Reserve's rules.A review appraisal should determine: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is suitable for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the manners by which the property valuation is acquired guarantees independence and quality. In addition, they must announce whether the appraisal or evaluation report is consistent with the letter of engagement, which describes the scope of the appraisal assignment. The Fed goes on to say 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".
