I provide the following services:

Appraisal Reviews – Standard 3 compliant (I will modify values as needed – this saves the cost and time of a second appraisal)

Compliance Checklists

Quality Control Audit (QCA) – I review the quality of your internal or third-party appraisal reviews

Appraisal Policy Review – I use a 62-item questionnaire similar to that used by bank examiners

Portfolio Valuation – I have worked on over 50 projects involving the valuation of real property collateral for bank acquisitions or capital procurement; Portfolios have ranged from $100 Million to $7 Billion and took 3 to 7 business days

Independent Audit of Bank Appraisal Departments – My experience as Chief Appraiser at two $100+ Billion financial institutions gives me the background to review your department for compliance with internal policy and procedures and to determine its effectiveness and efficiency; One of the departments I managed received ‘Best In Class’ for the Nation from Federal Reserve Examiners

Education – I provide customized training for banks on a variety of topics including appraisal review, appraisal department management, and FIRREA compliance
SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
