They "must also announce whether the appraisal or evaluation report is compatible with the engagement letter, which describes the outlook of the appraisal assignment." Last, The Federal Reserve says that "some financial institutions supplement regular reviews with post-funding assessments of appraisal quality for a few of their higher-liability or larger-value contracts as a method to aid in uncovering valuation disputes."
