In USPAP, “appraisal review” is defined as “the act or process of developing an opinion about the quality of another appraiser’s work that was performed as part of an appraisal or appraisal review assignment.

THE ONE AND ONLY GAME CHANGER: Have the appraisal done FIRST in the mortgage process. Right now every thing is done, all the paperwork, all the projections, everything is done, then the LO tells the borrowers, this is what the appraisal has to come in at for this all to work.

“When a mortgage is being processed, the property in question needs to be appraised by a professional who is licensed or certified in the state where the property is located.

Because even if a review Appraiser in a Company is a Licensed or Certified Appraiser, they still may lack the LOCAL expertise needed to provide a truly reliable review.
