Appraisal Reviews with Parkway AppraisalsAs 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 doing reviews are obligated to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Parkway Appraisals provides appraisal review services that are unbiased, qualified, professional and in accordance with the Federal Reserve's regulations.The purpose of appraisal reviews are to pursue: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is well-suited for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the procedure by which the property valuation is acquired guarantees independence and quality. In addition, they should denote whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the letter of engagement, which sets forth the extent of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Fed also 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".
