According to the Federal Reserve, appraisal reviews "must decide whether the appraisal or evaluation is well-suited for the transaction, the danger of the transaction, and whether the process by which the collateral valuation is acquired guarantees independence and quality." In addition, they "should demonstrate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is consistent with the engagement letter, which sets forth the extent of the appraisal assignment." Last, The Federal Reserve states that "some institutions supplement typical reviews with post-funding surveys of appraisal quality for a number of their higher-liability or higher-value contracts as a control to assist in revealing valuation issues."
