APPRAISAL REVIEW

BOOST YOUR CONFIDENCE IN THE QUALITY OF APPRAISALS

Commercial Appraisal reports are as variable in form and content as are the range of CRE property types across our towns and cities. Because of this substantial diversity, it is valuable to get a second, expert opinion on Appraisal report credibility, quality, and USPAP compliance.

A DISCIPLINED APPROACH TO REVIEWS

RIGOROUS METHODS THAT ROOT OUT RISK

Our reviews bolster our clients’ confidence in the Appraisals they procure. Boxwood’s reviewers are state certified and licensed appraisers, and our Appraisal Review reports comply with relevant USPAP Standards.

Our reviewers thoroughly analyze all aspects of the Appraisal for completeness, accuracy, adequacy, relevance, and reasonableness as they pertain to applicable law, regulations, or intended user/client requirements. We also address the Appraiser’s competency in terms of the structure of the analysis and how well the Appraisal is prepared.

A DISCIPLINED APPROACH TO REVIEWS

Leveraging years of in-house valuation expertise, Boxwood’s reviewers examine if the appraisal data is appropriate and complete, the appraiser’s analysis is sound, and the conclusions reached are credible.

Boxwood’s desktop Appraisal Review reports are standardized, straightforward, and easy for readers to follow. They contain checkbox lists that authenticate the Appraisal’s compliance with regulatory items and verify that building and site characteristics, analytical methods, and valuation approaches among other pre-defined line items are included in the Appraisal. We supplement this information with commentary.

Of course, the extent of our review work may vary with specific assignments and client needs. Typically, there are four factors that typically affect the scope or timing of our review work including:

  • Complexity and/or size of the subject property.
  • Quality of the Appraisal report.
  • Responsibility and protocols for communications with the fee appraiser.
  • Turn time for delivery of the report.
