Appraisal Analysis Training
Go in-depth on the details of the appraisal and valuation process, from both the lender and appraiser side of the game, to provide a thorough understanding of what is required and what you have to have!
The past few years have seen significant developments in real estate appraisals and evaluation rules and regulations. Revised Interagency Guidelines and new rules under Reg. Z have been issued, and additional requirements have been proposed due to Dodd-Frank.
As breakdowns in appraisal practices have been partly blamed for the mortgage crisis, regulators have raised their expectations; lenders' appraisal and evaluation programs must include more elements than ever before. Some of the themes being emphasized by the agencies are independence of the appraiser and evaluator, reviews, and qualifications.
There are also restrictions against using AVMs (automated valuation models), BPOs (broker price opinions), and tax valuations that has upset many in the industry. So...do you know the requirements?
