Appraisal reviews "must determine whether the appraisal or evaluation is applicable for the transaction, the risk of the transaction, and whether the practices by which the collateral valuation is acquired guarantees independence and quality," as stated by the Federal Reserve. They "must also indicate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is true to the engagement letter, which gives an account of the extent of the appraisal assignment." Lastly, the Federal Reserve notes that "some financial institutions augment periodic reviews with post-funding assessments of appraisal quality for a few of their higher-risk or large-value contracts as a way to aid in uncovering valuation dilemmas."
