The Federal Reserve says appraisal reviews "must determine whether the appraisal or evaluation is pertinent for the transaction, the risk of the transaction, and whether the manner by which the collateral valuation is accomplished guarantees independence and quality." They "must also announce whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the engagement letter, which describes the scope of the appraisal assignment." Last, The Federal Reserve says that "some institutions supplement routine reviews with post-funding assessments of appraisal quality for a few of their high-risk or high-value dealings as a means to assist in detecting valuation issues."
