MBA Education Dealing with Appraisals: Regulations and Requirements Webinar Aug. 4

MBA Education presents a webinar, Dealing with Appraisals: Regulations and Requirements, on Thursday, Aug. 4 from 2:00-4:00 p.m. ET.

This webinar will provide in-depth details of the appraisal and valuation process, from both the perspective of both the lender and appraiser, and paint a clear picture of Revised Interagency Guidelines and rules under Reg Z.

Because regulators have raised their expectations, lenders’ appraisal and evaluation programs must include more elements than ever before. Themes now emphasized by the agencies are independent of the appraiser and evaluator, reviews and qualifications. There are also restrictions against using AVMs (automated valuation models), BPOs (broker price opinions) and tax valuations and in some cases (called “flipping transactions”), lenders will even have to obtain two appraisals on the same property for one loan. This webinar will emphasize and provide a thorough understanding of what is required.
