In addition, they "should demonstrate whether the appraisal or evaluation report is even with the letter of engagement, which describes the range of the appraisal assignment." Last, The Federal Reserve says that "some banks reinforce regular reviews with post-funding assessments of appraisal quality for any of their higher-risk or high-value transactions as a control to assist in detecting valuation disputes."
