Expert Appraisal Reviews by Centennial Appraisal Group, 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 appraisers fulfilling reviews are obligated to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." At Centennial Appraisal Group, Inc., we provide appraisal review services that are objective, expert, professional and in line with the Federal Reserve's regulations.The purpose of appraisal reviews are to detect: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is appropriate for the transaction, the exposure inherit in the transaction, and whether the actions by which the collateral valuation is attained guarantees independence and quality. In addition, they must announce whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the engagement letter, which describes the range of the appraisal assignment. The Fed 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".
