Bill overview
This bill, the VA Appraisal Modernization Act, aims to update how the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) charges fees for appraisals on home loans. It proposes an annual inflation adjustment to appraisal fees, based on home price increases, and establishes a system for designating ‘high-demand’ and ‘remote’ counties to ensure fair compensation for appraisers in areas with limited availability. The bill also includes a report and study to assess the impact of these changes and explore potential solutions for addressing appraisal backlogs and fraud.
