Appraisal Request Form

Updated 01/05/2021

A bank “Assignee” may occasionally request the assignment of a real estate appraisal as part of loan evaluation and/or loan underwriting. The assigning bank “Assignor” may have changed underwriting standards, issued a loan denial or is unable to underwrite the loan for a different reason. There are two standard forms to use; a form request and a letter request. Which document to use depends on the comfort level of the requestor.

This document is the form request and should included the following two items in addition to the required descriptive terms:

Include the following:

  1. The appraisal being transferred has been ordered under the current Appraiser Independence Requirement (AIR) guidelines and is in accordance with all regulations
    applying to the AIR; and

  2. The transferred appraisal will not be more than 120 days old by the date of closing the subject transaction.
