restricted use appraisals vs summary and self contained

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hello,

Am i correct that 1004 resiedential reports, ordered by my client ( a bank ) would in fact be a restricted use?

No, you are not correct.

I would have no other client and want to make sure I understand the differences.

Thank You

Then you need to study and attend more CE classes. Drink more coffee while you do so.
 
This sounds like a case of confusing
(a) the purpose of identifying clients/intended users/intended use, and
(b) how development results are communicated to the clients/intended users.

Because of the confusion (and, maybe it is I'm the confused one), I read the question two potential ways:
1. Are typical mortgage appraisal reports restricted to mortgage-related uses (as in intended users/intended use), or
2. Are typical mortgage appraisal reports restricted-use reports (as in reporting format).

I'd refer the OP to AO-11 and AO-12 for a start, but I don't think the AO provides the precise answer the OP is looking for. FAQ #236 also touches on the issue.

Good luck!
 
I don't know if this will be helpful but the first line of the 1004 right below the title line is (my bold):

The purpose of this summary appraisal report is to provide the lender/client with an accurate, and adequately supported, opinion of the market value of the subject property.

I think the summary designation is also often missed on the upper portion of the 1004D that labels the report as a Summary Appraisal Update Report. - But that's a whole new pool full of worms we can save for another day.

Follow up, after reading the definition of "Restricted" in 2-2C, now read Appraiser's Cert. 23 on the 1004. :icon_idea::)
 
They are summary reports IF

1. they are filled out properly and
*2. adequate narrative is added where indicated, or where necessary for the intended user to understand the information contained in the report.* (This is the area lacking in most form reports that I have seen, and IMO without the add'l narrative they do read like RURs).

This cannot be stated enough ... very good post Cali ... this is my experience as well.

It is a summary report with or without those two things due to the label placed on the form. Now being a USPAP compliant summary report does indeed depend on those two items. :new_all_coholic:

technically, I would aver you are correct. If there is no label, it is presumed to be a self-contained. But I don't agree with our investigator's argument that if you state something in a summary, the report becomes a "restricted" report. I think that is a poor way to veiw it and the lines between - state - summarized - describe etc. are way to blurred to be useful tools. Format should not be a USPAP issue imho.

The OP asking the question is referencing a lender client. Ie., USPAP compliance is key.

I haven't used forms in a long time, and back when I did they were not 'Summary' without many additions; of course back then, we had Supplemental Standards and underwriters well versed in the USPAP. Miss those days... :) At any rate, I wouldn't advise anyone to assume anything is a 'Restricted', 'Summary', or 'Self-Contained' just because it is labled as such.
