• New “Interagency Appraisal & Evaluation Guidelines” as of December 2, 2010
• Previous guidance issued in 1994 with updates on specific topics
• 12/2/2010 combines everything and emphasizes common themes

• The collateral valuation program is an integral component of the credit underwriting process and, therefore, should be isolated from influence by the institution’s loan production staff.
• A review of valuation information is an essential component of sound credit administration and is mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act.
Important Component of Credit Decision
![Page 6: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Reviewing appraisals and evaluations before engaging in a loan transaction ensures the value conclusion is reliable and enables financial institutions to make informed credit decisions, manage credit risk, and meet supervisory requirements.
• Loan repayment sources:1. Borrower2. Guarantor3. Collateral4. Refinance from another lender
![Page 7: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Appraisers must be independent of the loan production and collection processes and have no direct, indirect or prospective interest, financial or otherwise, in the property or transaction.
• USPAP requires disclosure
• Interagency Guidelines simply don’t allow it.
Independence of Process
![Page 8: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Not Independent Independent

• “Communication between the institution’s collateral valuation staff and an appraiser or person performing an evaluation is essential for the exchange of appropriate information relative to the valuation assignment.”
• Source: Interagency Appraisal & Evaluation Guidelines, Page 21 of 70
Very Important Thing to Note:
![Page 10: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• “An institution should not directly or indirectly coerce, influence or otherwise encourage an appraiser or a person who performs an evaluation to misstate or misrepresent the value of the property.”
• Source: Interagency Appraisal & Evaluation Guidelines, Page 21 of 70
![Page 11: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• After April 1, 2011, an institution must report non-compliance with USPAP to state appraiser boards
• Must also file a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) with Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) when suspecting fraud
• Factual errors are major trouble, differences in opinion are more difficult to pursue.
![Page 12: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Appraisals from Other Financial Institutions
• Appraisal must meet the Bank’s quality standards (and of course be compliant with USPAP & FIRREA)
• Must be still valid with respect to changes to the property and market since date of value
• Should confirm:• Appraiser was engaged directly by the other bank• Appraiser had no direct, indirect, or prospective interest, financial
or otherwise, in the property or transaction• Cannot accept readdressed or altered appraisals with
intent to conceal original client
![Page 13: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• A borrower can inform the lender that a current appraisal exists, and the lender may request it directly from the other institution
• No “assignment letters” for appraisals from other financial institutions required.
![Page 14: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Appraiser cannot be engaged by borrower.– Independence is compromised when:
• a borrower recommends an appraiser or person to perform the evaluation
• loan production staff selects a person to perform the appraisal or evaluation
![Page 15: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Engagement letters• Provides paper trail.• Lenders should use written engagement
letters when ordering appraisals, especially for large, complex or out-of-area commercial properties.
• Note: Appraisal Institute offers samples.• Also, appraisers should have their own.
![Page 16: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Preparing Customers for Appraisals
Let customers know: An appraiser will be calling them to set up an inspection They will request information needed to complete the
assignment, which may include: Site plans Building plans Capital expenditures (in recent years and planned) Historical income and expense statements (3 years + YTD) Rent rolls Leases Title work Previous appraisals Purchase agreement (if applicable)
![Page 17: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Expectations for Appraisers
In most cases, it’s a good idea for appraisers to contact the customer within a few business days of engagement.
If they are going to be late, notification to the client should occur as soon as possible.
Learn the regulations to add value to your customers, by catching things that could get them in trouble. Value-in-use example.
![Page 18: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Resolving Appraisal Deficiencies
• What can and cannot be asked of an appraiser:• Can: Consider additional info. about the subject or comps• Can: Provide additional support for the value• Can: Correct factual errors• Cannot: Instruct or require the appraiser to make substantial
changes• If still not resolved, what options do we have?
• Reject the appraisal and order a new one• Rely on an appraisal review completed by an appropriately
licensed appraiser, that includes a value opinion – must comply with USPAP Standard 3
• Adjust underwriting criteria
![Page 19: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Focus on Competency
• “The person selected possesses the requisite education, expertise, and experience to competently complete the assignment.”
• Source: Interagency Appraisal & Evaluation Guidelines, Page 22 of 70
![Page 20: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Reviewer qualifications– Not required to be a state licensed or certified
appraiser
– Must be independent and competent
– Let the appraisal stand on its own merit, aside from the specific qualifications of the appraiser.
![Page 21: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Value Definitions and Scenarios
An appraisal report must:1. Conform to USPAP.2. Be written and contain sufficient
information and analysis to support the institution’s decision to engage in the transaction.
![Page 22: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
3. Analyze and report appropriate deductions and discounts for proposed construction or renovation, partially leased buildings, non-market lease terms, and tract developments with unsold units.
4. Be based on the definition of market value set forth in the appraisal regulation.
5. Be performed by state licensed or certified appraisers.
![Page 23: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
In regards to #4 from Previous Slide:• Value opinions such as going-concern value, value in
use, or a special value to a specific property user may not be used as market value for federally related transactions.
• An appraisal may contain separate opinions of such values so long as they are clearly identified and disclosed.
• The estimate of market value should consider the real property’s actual physical condition, use, and zoning as of the effective date of the appraiser’s opinion of value.
![Page 24: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Expanded Evaluation Requirements
•BPO, AEMV, CMA are out, when by themselves.
•Also, must consider actual physical condition.
![Page 25: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• What is an “evaluation”?“A valuation permitted by the Agencies’ appraisal regulations for transactions that qualify for the appraisal threshold exemption, business loan exemption, or subsequent transaction exemption.”
• See page 31 (of 70) of the Interagency Guidelines 12-2010.
![Page 26: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
How do the various “valuation products” fit into a banks collateral program?
• BPO, AVM or other methods may be tools used by a bank for portfolio monitoring, etc.
• BPO’s, AVM’s, etc. cannot be used as an “evaluation” because they most likely don’t comply with all of the provisions for development and content of an “evaluation”.
• AVM or other methods/ technological tools may be used in the preparation of an “evaluation”, but probably will need additional information/analysis in order to comply with all of the provisions of the Guidelines.
![Page 27: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Who can do evaluations?– Need not be a licensed or certified appraiser,
but must be competent– When done by an appraiser, USPAP applies.
See Advisory Opinion 13 (2010-11 Edition).– Also see AI Proposed Guide Note 13

Appraisal or Evaluation Required?• A Real Estate Evaluation is Required When:
• �A new real estate-related transaction is $250,000 or less,• �A new real estate-related transaction is a business loan of
$1 million or less and the sale of or rental income derived from real estate is not the primary source of repayment, or
• A real estate-related transaction involves an existing extension of credit at the lending institution, provided that:• There has been no obvious and material change in market
conditions or the physical aspects of property that threatens the adequacy of the institution’s real estate collateral protection after the transaction, even with the advancement of new monies; or
• There is no advancement of new monies, other than funds necessary to cover reasonable closing costs.
![Page 29: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• A Real Estate Appraisal is Required When:• �A new real estate-related transaction exceeds $250,000,
unless another exemption applies,• A lease is the economic equivalent of a purchase or sale of
leased real estate, or• �The banking supervisor requires an appraisal be obtained.
![Page 30: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• A Real Estate Appraisal is Not Required When:• �A lien on real estate is taken as an “abundance of
caution,”• �A loan is not secured by real estate,• �A lien has a purpose other than the real estate’s value,• �A new business loan is $1 million or less and the sale of or
rental income derived from real estate is not the primary source of repayment, or
• A renewal, refinancing, or other subsequent transaction of an existing extension of credit where an evaluation is permitted.

Depth of Review/Evaluation – Should be Prioritized by Risk
• “The institution should consider the risk, size, and complexity of the transaction and the real estate collateral when determining the appraisal report format to be specified in its appraisal engagement instructions to an appraiser.”
• See page 28 (of 70) of the Interagency Guidelines 12-2010.
![Page 35: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Although the Agencies’ appraisal regulations allow an institution to use an evaluation for certain transactions, an institution should establish policies and procedures for determining when to obtain an appraisal for such transactions. For example, an institution should consider obtaining an appraisal as an institution’s portfolio risk increases or for higher risk real estate-related financial transactions, such as those involving:• Loans with combined loan-to-value ratios in excess of the supervisory
loan-to-value limits.• Atypical properties.• Properties outside the institution’s traditional lending market.• Transactions involving existing extensions of credit with significant
risk to the institution.• Borrowers with high risk characteristics.
![Page 36: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Quick Suggestions:• Can’t afford to have staff appraisers?
• Outsource at least some reviews – maybe the most complex properties.
• Outsource some evaluations as well.• Don’t use same appraisers multiple times on the same
property year after year.• Don’t be penny-wise and pound-foolish. You get what you
pay for.• Leverage your appraisers for data and information.• Make it a standard practice to bounce questions off other
qualified appraisers – but keep it confidential.• Rate appraisers for timeliness, quality and responsiveness.
![Page 37: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Appraisal Review• How bank reviewers are scrutinizing collateral
• Real vs. Theoretical• In-place vs. Proforma• Provide useful data (not just opinion)• Convince me.
• Why banks are scrutinizing collateral• Primarily regulatory and accounting reasons• Some genuinely care about the collateral component to
their loan.
![Page 38: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Appraisal Review• Of course, there are those banks out there who are in “Extend and Pretend” mode, trying to ride-out the storm until things calm down.• A low appraised value, even if it is undisputable, can
cause the bank to incur a write-down, and impact capital reserves.
• To avoid this, they will:• Delay getting new appraisals as long as possible• Go back to an original appraiser who appraised it in the
peak of the market.• Look for less experienced, less competent appraisers who
are hungry for work.
![Page 39: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Appraisal Review• Errors in appraisals can be from:
• Time/effort issues• Not enough fee• Not enough time (client or appraiser’s fault)
• Competency - very tricky
• Ethical lapses – usually involves some kind of coordination/cooperation with lender, consciously or subconsciously.
![Page 40: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
• Suggestions:• Read the appraisal, follow the logic.• Check the math (at least the most important sections).
• Tests of reasonableness.• Watch out for giant leaps in assumptions.• Think about it as if you were going to buy the property.• Who knows, as a lender, you may end up owning it one day…
![Page 41: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• General Warning Signs:• Spelling/formatting errors• Leaps of faith• Core assumptions at extreme ends of a range• Questionable or insufficient comp data• Presence of “hedging” words (e.g. “say…”)• Contradictory logic• Failure to apply tests of reasonableness
• Value equal to, or exceed costs?• Value reconciled w/current or historic selling/listing
activity?
![Page 42: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• Market Analysis section Red Flags
• Meaningful or meaningless?
• Market participant interviews?
• Request that the appraiser include a section of the report summarizing interviews of market participants (realtors/brokers, developers, city officials, etc.) about not only the market in general for the subject property type, but also the specific marketability of the subject property itself.
![Page 43: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
• Information related directly to the subject property?
• Important to be bouncing ideas off other market participants, including other appraisers, to make sure they aren’t missing anything.
• To a certain extent, appraising consists of consensus building, between the appraiser, the client, and also brokers, developers, borrowers, etc.
![Page 44: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
• Cost Approach Red Flags• Replacement Cost - does it appear reasonable?• Depreciation – have all forms been accounted for?
• Physical (age)• Functional (over- or under-improvement)• External (market forces)
• Entrepreneurial Incentive – is it included? Is it adequate?• Without it, why would anyone build it?
• In current market, very rare that cost equals value.
![Page 45: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• Sales Comparison Approach Red Flags• Arbitrary, unless there are “smoking gun” comps.• Pay attention to range of sale prices per unit (both unadjusted and adjusted).• The target should most often harden.
• Use of old, incompletely reported, poorly analyzed or not truly comparable sales.
• Dramatically different tenant profiles.• Fee Simple vs. Leased Fee
• Inconsistency in adjustments.
![Page 46: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
• Income Approach Red Flags• Direct Capitalization vs. Discounted Cash Flow.
• Stabilized Income vs. Non-Stabilized Income.• Rate = Risk• Fee Simple vs. Leased Fee
• Which represents the true “as-is” value of the subject property?
• Considerations for above- or below-market contract rent?
• Asking Rents vs. Actual Lease Comps• Full burden of expenses shown?
![Page 47: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
• Reconciliation Section Red Flags
• Should lead reader to conclusion.
• Watch for inconsistencies in approaches to value.• They should rarely be that far off.• If they are, then there should be a logical, reasonable explanation.
![Page 48: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Examples from Real Appraisals
![Page 49: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Example 1
• Summary of Three Approaches to Value for a purchase of an existing, fully functional retail building, to be renovated for a unique, special use:

Example 1, continued
• Market Rent Conclusion, however, is $12.17 per square foot (on a blended basis).
• Appraisal report asserts that “the difference between the net rent conclusion and breakeven is significant. The calculation demonstrates that owner occupancy is more feasible than rental.”
• Is that reasonable?
![Page 60: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

Example 2• “Self-Contained” appraisal report• Multi-tenant, partially owner-occupied industrial property.
• No breakdown of individual tenant spaces, nor office/warehouse percentages.

From the market analysis section:
• “Unemployment is historically low. It was 4.5% in January 2008 – nearly a full point below the national average of 5.4%.
• “Median Family income was $66,809 in 2006…”
• “The median price of Twin Cities homes sold in 2007 was $225,000”
![Page 63: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
The entire income approach – recreated for this presentation:
Some excerpts:
• “The appraisers’ calculate the anticipated benefits (cash flows and reversion) into property value…” – Though only Direct Capitalization applied.
• “market rents has been obtained from the appraisers’ records and from other sources such as MNCAR, Colliers, Turley, Martin and Tucker.”
![Page 64: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Example 2, continued• Ah, the old, one-page Income Approach.• Mentions that part of the fourth unit is vacant, and all of
the fifth, but doesn’t tell us how much space that is and what impact it could have.
• Turns out it is most likely something around 21-28%.• Appraiser uses 11% vacancy and collection loss – is this
reasonable?• No rent comp information.• No expense analysis.
![Page 65: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Example 3• Failed residential condominium development• Approximately 10% of units sold• Construction not yet completed• Regulations regarding “Tract Developments” apply (See Appendix C of Interagency Guidelines).• “Appraisals for these properties must reflect deductions and
discounts for holding costs, marketing costs, and entrepreneurial profit supported by market data.”
![Page 66: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Example 3, continuedReport states that the value scenarios will be:
Are these the appropriate value scenarios?
1) Estimate the “as-completed” value of the condo units
2) Estimate the “as-is” value of the condo units; the cost to complete the units and the common elements is known.
3) Discount the retail sales estimate to present value based on current supply and demand in this market.

Example 3, continued
• This is essentially the “Gross Retail” value, or the sum of the retail values of the individual units, once completed.
• As a side note, this amount was greater than the sum of the list prices of the units at the time.

Example 3, continued
“Consideration of a discount is required by both USPAP and OCC 94/55 when the marketing/holding period of a property is forecast to exceed one year. Given the timing of the development, a discount to present value is appropriate. Theoretically, sales should accelerate once the common elements are complete and occupancy increases. A compounding discount rate of 5% is used to discount the retail sale estimate. In essence, the sales per square foot in the third year are discounted 15%. The discount accounts for holding costs (taxes, insurance, etc.) during the sellout period. The first table below summarizes the allocation. The remaining charts reflect the discounting process.”

on all units sold.• The first year of the appraiser’s discounting process only
deducts 5% total, and only for the 1/3 of the units he allocates during that year.• If marketing costs aren’t even covered, what about all real estate

Example 4, continued• First, the math on this adjustment. How does a positive
adjustment of 47%, plus then a negative adjustment of 5% turn $0.51/SF into $1.04?
• Also, what about the impact of Tax Increment Financing on a sale price of a comp?
• What are the terms, and who benefits from the TIF?
• In this case, the buyer got the land for free, and got his entire site improvement costs covered.
• Which direction should that adjustment be?

Example 7• Industrial building, three spaces, two currently leased.
• Engagement letter asked for Leased Fee analysis.
• Good example of what reviewers are looking for these days.

Example 7, continued• Rent comps less than compelling.• Wide unadjusted range of rents - $5.58 NNN for office
warehouse w/20% finish, $7.19 NNN for a “distribution center” with 5% office finish, $8.00 Gross for office warehouse w/58% finish.
• No lease start dates, although one rent comp had expired in 2010, another one expires/d in 2012, and another one expires in 2014, which at least suggests that they must not be too recent indications.
• Report says rents haven’t changed, but doesn’t include any real way to prove that.

Example 7, continued• Adjusted range of rent comps was $5.12 to $5.64 on a net
basis.• Appraiser concludes to market rent of $5.20.• Then applies this market rent to the entire space, as if it
were a fee simple analysis.• Resulting Potential Gross Rent is $129,064, on a net
basis.• Actual Contract Rent is $95,795, on a net, modified gross
and gross basis.• The largest tenant is paying on a Gross basis, and in total,
over 60+% of the total space is paying less than full expenses.

Example 7, continued• If evidence were so compelling that contract rent was
below market:• Why hasn’t the landlord increased rents?• What has the appraiser assumed by doing it this way?
• Current tenants are actually paying this higher rate already?• A potential buyer would be able to walk right in and increase the rents
immediately?• If one of the tenants was not willing to pay, and vacated the space, are
there other tenants lined up to fill the space at the higher rent?• Who should be taking this risk? The lender? The equity position?
• Would the cap rate change at all given the below market rents?
![Page 99: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Example 7, continued• One last thing to note on this deal:
• Appraiser had full historical income and expense information for the subject property for the three most recent years.
• Yet, in the income/expense reconstruction section, they were not included.

Example 7, continued• On page 484, operating expenses comprised of:
• Fixed expenses• Variable expenses• Replacement allowance
• It is extremely helpful to the reviewer if a full burden of expenses is shown. Especially if an appraiser is provided the historical data.
• It makes it easier for the reviewer to validate/invalidate your assumptions when there’s adequate detail presented.

Example 8• New construction office building in an area where most properties are
50-60 years old at least.
• Appraisal report showed market rents equal to the breakeven rent. Rent comps from other areas.
• Market rent was concluded to be $22 per square foot on a net basis.
• 2% vacancy and collection loss applied.
• Capitalized land-only real estate taxes, but states in the report:• “as the property becomes fully assessed the tax load will increase significantly.”
• Concluded value was equal to the construction costs - $1,400,000.

Example 8, continued• Actual contract rent turns out to be $16 on a gross basis.
• Actual vacancy is 20%.
• Actual operating expenses turn out to be triple what the original appraiser had estimated.
• Subsequent re-appraisal of the leased fee interest - $500,000 value conclusion.

Example 8, continued• In between the original appraisal and the new one, the bank had
requested that an appraiser take a look at the situation.
• In a letter to the bank, not an appraisal, the appraiser stated, among other things, the following:
• “Based on my brief investigation of the property and conditions under which it is currently leased, I believe that it is reasonable to assume that the property is likely to fall into a value range somewhere between $750,000 and $900,000.”
• “I of course cannot provide you with an estimate of market value for this property without going through all the proper and accepted appraisal practices and protocol required to do so.”
![Page 106: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Example 8, continued
• “Based on my brief investigation of the property and conditions under which it is currently leased, I believe that it is reasonable to assume that the property is likely to fall into a value range somewhere between $750,000 and $900,000.”
• That’s seven hedging words in one sentence.

Example 9• An appraisal review ordered by a participant bank (who
was in Extend and Pretend mode).
• Commercial land in outlying area.
• Massively oversupplied submarket.• Zero new development in past couple years.• Zero land sales in immediate area for past two years, despite
significant listing price reductions.• Over 30+ active listings of competing commercial land within 2
miles of subject.
![Page 108: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
Example 9, continued• From the review:• “The appraisers discuss the currently offered listings in
the area and describe a range from $8.00 to $25.00 per square foot. The subject is listed for $8.50 per square foot. In other words, brokers in this market believe the inherent value of land in this market area is $8.00 to less than $25 per square foot.”
• Is that true? Is that what the brokers believe?
![Page 109: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Example 9, continued• From the review:
• “The appraisers assert that the highest and best [use] is commercial development, but that the absorption period could be 3 to 5 years…The appraisers indicate that the marketing/exposure period for the property is 6 to 12 months.”
• “The Interagency Guideline [sic] requires that the appraiser consider if a discount for absorption holding cost or incomplete construction is needed. While there is no market basis for the discount, it is common to apply a percentage that equals the holding cost for a portion of the absorption period. This does not mimic the behavior of a typical developer, who would pay the required price and figure the added cost into the final product. In this case, the appraisers avoid this issue by selecting a marketing period of less than 1 year (although this contradicts the 3 to 5 year absorption).”
![Page 110: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Example 9, continued• Is development timing the same thing as marketing and exposure period?
• Is it reasonable to say that a typical developer would “pay the required price and figure the added cost into the final product”?
• Another way of asking that is, do developer’s have complete control over what they can get for the “final product”?
![Page 111: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Example 9, continued• From the review:
• “The quality of the…sales comparison approach is average. Five sales are presented; none are from the competitive market area…”
• “The preadjusted range is from $4.72 to $7.10 per square foot.”
• “The net adjustments range from -10% to -25%, and each sale is adjusted downward on a net basis.”
• The appraiser had concluded $4.50 per square foot, based primarily on the rough market conditions and oversupply.
![Page 112: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Example 9, continued• The reviewer did their own search for comps:
• “A data search of land sales in XXXXX, YYYYY and ZZZZZ counties revealed 25 sales. Further refining the data set resulted in an alternate data of five sales. The sales ranged from $6.68 to $9.36 per square foot. All five closed during 20XX. All five are zoned for commercial use. The alternate data set is closer physically [proximity]…”
• No other information on the reviewer’s comp set provided.
![Page 113: Appraisal Review and Regulatory Issues in the Current Banking Environment](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf1229/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
Example 9, continued• “In summary, three items contradict the appraiser’s conclusions.
First, the assessor values the property at $7.72 per square foot. Second, the current listing at $8.50 and other listings in the neighborhood from $8 to $25 per square foot contradict the appraiser’s conclusion. Lastly, the alternate data set ranging from $6.68 to $9.36 supports a value closer to the listing.”
• The subject had been listed for $7.87 per square foot for two years, the broker reporting zero interest at that price.
• The subject has since been listed at $5.00 per square foot for over a year, still with no interest.

Example 11• “Test of Reasonableness”• Subject is a busted condo development (24 units)• Appraiser was asked to re-appraise one year after first
appraisal• 1st appraisal, he projected an absorption rate of 6 units per year• 0 units sold between 1st and 2nd appraisal• Absorption rate projected in 2nd appraisal?
• …6 units per year.
• Doesn’t mean that it’s wrong, just that it will take more convincing the second time around.

Example 13• Small multi-tenant retail building appraisal• Appraiser only viewed a rent roll, not actual leases
• Appraiser assumed all leases were gross terms• Leases were actually structured in several ways; net, gross, and semi-gross
• Property was under-valued
