Course in Video: Module 3 - Appraisal

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The transcript explains major 2026 appraisal changes: the old URAR forms will be replaced by dynamic, data-driven reports using the updated Uniform Appraisal Dataset. Appraisers will need much more detailed, structured property information, leading to longer appointments, slower turn times, and more questions. Agents should provide granular details, documents, photos, permits, and improvement histories to avoid delays. It also mentions a Texas court ruling pausing certain FinCEN anti-money-laundering reporting requirements, a utility scam warning, limits on drone imagery use by insurers, and upcoming VA appraisal fee changes in Colorado.
