Getting a second opinion on an appraisalAccording 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 should "have the knowledge and expertise to assess compliance with the Federal Reserve's appraisal regulations and guidelines." Nagle Appraisal LLC provides appraisal review services that are unbiased, qualified, professional and in line with the Federal Reserve's guidelines.A review appraisal should ascertain: whether the original appraisal or evaluation is applicable for the transaction, the risk inherit in the transaction, and whether the means by which the collateral valuation is accomplished ensures independence and quality. They must also signify whether the appraisal or evaluation report is in line with the letter of engagement, which describes the extent of the appraisal assignment. The Federal Reserve also goes on to say 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".

They include an appraisal "desk" review, a "field" review, a "short" form and a "narrative" form.
