Competent Appraisal Reviews with Rivers Edge Appraisals & Consulting, Inc.According to 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 producing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Rivers Edge Appraisals & Consulting, Inc. provides appraisal review services that are objective, efficient, professional and in accordance with the Federal Reserve's regulations.A review appraisal should reveal: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is suitable for the transaction, the risk inherit in the transaction, and whether the manners by which the real estate valuation is rendered ensures independence and quality. The review should also signify whether the appraisal or evaluation report is in line with the engagement letter, which sets forth the reach of the appraisal assignment. 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".
