Appraisal Reviews with Murray Appraisal Services, Inc.As stated 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 producing reviews are compelled to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Murray Appraisal Services, Inc. provides appraisal review services that are objective, qualified, professional and square with the Federal Reserve's guidelines.The purpose of appraisal reviews are to ascertain: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is applicable for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the means by which the collateral valuation is acquired ensures independence and quality. They must also announce whether the appraisal or evaluation report is in line with the engagement letter, which sets forth the depth of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, the Fed 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".
