In order for a case number to be established for a new FHA case requiring an appraisal, the FHA-approved appraiser selected to perform the property appraisal must be identified. FHA-approved appraiser information, including license numbers can be requested before case number assignment, using the Appraisers page. Later, if the actual appraiser differs from the assigned appraiser, use Appraisers again to look up the actual information necessary to continue processing the case. If necessary, the new appraiser can be assigned to the case using Appraiser Reassignment.
The Appraisers List can be requested for a specific appraiser based on appraiser license number. A list of appraisers can be requested based on name, geographic location, ethnicity, race, gender, and status. Results include appraiser name, license number and expiration date, address, gender, ethnicity, race, phone number, status, exam passed date, and AQB compliance information.
The Appraisers page can be accessed through the following sequence of FHA Connection links: Single Family FHA, Single Family Origination, FHA Approval Lists, and Appraisers.
