SENIOR LENDING OFFICER'S STATEMENTS AND CERTIFICATIONS:
SECTION III - SENIOR LENDING OFFICER
STAFF APPRAISAL REVIEWER NOMINATION - The nominee is a full-time salaried employee of this company and is
authorized to act on our behalf as a staff appraisal reviewer. Based on our personal interview with the nominee and a thorough
review of the nominee's appraisal-related capabilities and performance, we find the nominee to be qualified as a staff appraisal
reviewer in accordance with the requirements in chapter 15 of the VA Lender's Handbook. We acknowledge the responsibility
that any improper actions of the nominee as a staff appraisal reviewer shall be imputed to the employer. We agree to promptly
notify the appropriate VA office(s) if we ever change or limit this recommendation, or terminate our relationship with the
nominee.
PROCESSING FEE - The $100 processing fee for this nominee is attached.
PROPERTIES ALREADY VALUED - Unless VA grants authorization for a specific case, this company will not knowingly
request an appraisal for a property which already has a valid value determination for VA loan purposes.
NO APPRAISAL REVIEWS FOR AFFILIATES - This company will not use LAPP for any builder, land developer, real estate
broker or other entity which it owns or has a financial interest in, or with which it is otherwise affiliated. We realize that this
restriction does not apply if our only relationship with a builder is a construction loan, or if VA agrees that the attached formal
corporate agreement or other documentation demonstrates that we and our affiliate(s) are essentially separate entities operating
independently of one another, free of all cross influences. In this latter situation, our quality control plan addresses the insulation
of the fee appraiser, staff appraisal reviewer and the underwriter from the influence of the affiliate.
NO APPRAISAL REVIEWS FOR/FROM OTHER LENDERS - Although appraisal reports may be transferred from one lender
to another, this company will not make VA value determinations for other mortgage lenders, nor use a value determination for
VA loan guaranty purposes which was made by another mortgage lender, under any circumstances.
NO PRESSURE/INFLUENCE ON FEE APPRAISER OR STAFF APPRAISAL REVIEWER - This company will not exert
pressure or influence on the fee appraiser or staff appraisal reviewer to remove or change valid appraisal report information, or to
reach a predetermined value for a property.
QUALITY CONTROL SYSTEM - This company has an effective quality control or other system to ensure the adequacy and
quality of its staff appraisal reviews. That system contains all of the basic elements identified in chapter 15 of the VA Lender's
Handbook.
I CERTIFY THAT my signature below affirms that the information I am providing in all of the above statements and certifications is accurate and
true, to the best of my knowledge.
