Complete Appraisal Reviews by Meier Appraisal Service, Inc.As 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 it's the obligation of appraisers performing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Here at Meier Appraisal Service, Inc., we provide appraisal review services that are impartial, qualified, professional and compliant with the Federal Reserve's regulations.A review appraisal has to reveal: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is applicable for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the method by which the collateral valuation is accomplished ensures independence and quality. Moreover, they should indicate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the engagement letter, which gives an account of the capacity of the appraisal assignment. The Fed states 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".
