Vendor Management Licensing

Appraiser Independence Requirements (AIR)
We promote Appraiser Independence in every aspect of the selection, fulfillment and ordering process. Appraiser recruiting and selection is independently driven by MyAMC’s Vendor Management Team, using geographic competency, experience and performance metrics, and is free of inappropriate influence.
Our ordering system retains a complete history of the assignment and fulfillment process, including all communications and documents that pass between loan production and the appraiser, and ensure that the appraiser is not provided with an anticipated, estimated, encouraged or desired value.
Appraisers are promptly paid for their services, based on customary and reasonable fees for the market they serve. Removal from MyAMC panel is based solely on bona fide administrative or quality-control reasons and require appraiser notification.
We maintain an Appraiser Independence hotline and email address, and encourage appraisers to immediately report any inappropriate activity or attempts to violate Appraiser Independence.
