Reviewing appraisals has become increasingly important in the appraisal profession and in the economic marketplace, with more appraisals being scrutinized and more appraisers offering review services. Review Theory and Procedures provides practitioners with a comprehensive model that defines the review function and describes how to integrate and organize the various tasks involved in performing a review assignment.
