This special report from the editorial staff of Valuation Review provides an in-depth look into the Federal Reserve Board’s (FRB) Interim Final Rule, a rule that will dictate the future of appraising in the U.S. The rule addresses two of the most important issues that appraisers have faced over the past decade: pressure and compensation.

In the boom years when appraisers were being pressured for a value conclusion, there was generally enough work available to allow appraisers to pick and choose assignments. Today, appraisers have reported that the assignments sometimes go to the lowest bidder, not necessarily to the most experienced appraiser. This rule could go a long way to putting an end to both issues in the appraisal world.

Understanding the Interim Final Rule outlines changes appraisers will see moving forward, highlights industry reaction and details the research gathered in creating the rule.
