Appraisal | Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Valuation Policy Update
August 26 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, also known as the Government Sponsored Entities (GSEs), are gearing up for the introduction of the new appraisal report starting September 2025 with recent valuation policy changes. But some of their existing policies on the use of property data reports, measurement of homes, and a general shift of appraisal requirements from subjective opinion to fact-based analysis, are sometimes still met with confusion from appraisers and agents alike. Join NAR to learn how the recent changes to GSE policies affect agents and appraisers, and get a break down on existing policies that shape what home valuation for conventional financing looks like.
Scott Reuter, Single-Family Director of Valuation at Freddie Mac, and Lyle Radke, Principal of Collateral Policy for Fannie Mae, join host, Candy Cooke, to break down the basics, share hot topics and share GSE information that REALTORS® need to know.
