In-house evaluations are becoming more common for collateral valuation, partially due to newer agency rules that increased the appraisal exemption threshold.

Staff that is independent of loan production must be appropriately trained to conduct this function. Will your evaluations pass muster?

AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:

Better identify when an in-house evaluation may be used in determining real estate market value (appraisal exemption rules) and when an appraisal should still be considered, even though an evaluation is permissible under the regulation
Clearly define the content requirements of a real estate evaluation, including the identification of real estate evaluations that do not meet regulatory expectations

Including suggestions for source data in developing content

Properly use technological tools in preparing evaluations, considering regulatory expectations surrounding support and validity of the tool
Define independence and how this impacts the evaluation process
Determine who should conduct real estate evaluations, including recommendations for training and continuing education

WEBINAR DETAILS

The use of in-house evaluations continues to become more prevalent among financial institutions. Recently adopted agency rules have increased appraisal exemption threshold levels for real estate transactions, providing for an increased volume of credits whereby an in-house evaluation may be used for collateral valuation. In addition to expanded exemption thresholds, limited availability of appraisers in some rural markets has driven several institutions to rely more heavily on internally prepared evaluations.

Institutions need to ensure that properly trained personnel, independent of loan production, are in place to develop real estate market values based on assumptions which are clearly supported and documented within the real estate evaluation. This presentation will focus on the development of a comprehensive real estate evaluation, including procedures surrounding the use of analytical methods or technological tools such as Automated Valuation Models (AVMs) and Tax Assessment Valuations (TAVs).

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This informative session is designed for those who prepare, review, or use in-house real estate evaluations as part of the loan-approval process. Both credit analysis and frontline lenders will find value in this comprehensive presentation.
