Madison Laine Assoc Inc Appraisal ReviewsAccording 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 completing reviews are obligated to "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Here at Madison Laine Assoc Inc, we provide appraisal review services that are impartial, efficient, professional and in accordance with the Federal Reserve's guidelines.A review appraisal should reveal: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is applicable for the transaction, the risk inherit in the transaction, and whether the means by which the property valuation is attained ensures independence and quality. In addition, they must indicate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is true to the letter of engagement, which gives an account of the extent of the appraisal assignment. Lastly, 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".
