Complete Appraisal Reviews by Foster Appraisal Services, LLCAccording 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 duty of appraisers doing reviews to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Foster Appraisal Services, LLC provides appraisal review services that are independent, qualified, professional and compliant with the Federal Reserve's guidelines.A review appraisal should determine: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is appropriate for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the means by which the real estate valuation is attained guarantees independence and quality. They must also signify whether the appraisal or evaluation report is in line with the letter of engagement, which sets forth the range of the appraisal assignment. The Federal Reserve also 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".
