Four new draft appraiser-specific policy documents that will be part of, or relate to, the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) Single-Family Housing Policy Handbook (SF Handbook) were posted on July 31, 2014 for stakeholder review and feedback. This posting is a continuation of FHA’s progress toward a consolidated, authoritative SF Handbook that will make it easier for stakeholders to do business with FHA.
FHA developed and has posted these draft policy documents concurrently to ensure a consistent approach to, and industry feedback on, FHA’s policies for appraisers. FHA invites all stakeholders to review the draft content documents and to provide feedback from July 31 through September 2, 2014. FHA specifically encourages FHA Roster appraisers and mortgagee staffs that underwrite appraisals to review and submit feedback.
