Lenders often try to save borrowers’ time and money. Although these efforts are well intended, compliance with regulations and guidance statements must be the overriding concern. In addition, financial regulators are reviewing real estate appraisal practices. They expect management to have developed an appraisal and evaluation policy that provides guidelines for obtaining appropriate valuation documents, including ordering and reviewing the document, ongoing monitoring of local market values, and obtaining updated or new valuation documents as required by guidance statements and regulations. This webinar will address common appraisal violations cited during on-site examinations of community financial institutions.
