The Federal Reserve says appraisal reviews "should conclude whether the appraisal or evaluation is pertinent for the transaction, the uncertainty of the transaction, and whether the means by which the collateral valuation is attained guarantees independence and quality." They "must also announce whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the letter of engagement, which describes the range of the appraisal assignment." Last, The Federal Reserve says that "some financial institutions reinforce periodic reviews with post-funding surveys of appraisal quality for a few of their high-risk or large-value contracts as a means to aid in identifying valuation issues."
