Supporting Statement for Paperwork Reduction Act Submissions


Direct Endorsement Underwriter/HUD Reviewer – Analysis of Appraisal Report

OMB Control Number 2502-0477

(Form HUD-54114)


A. Justification


1. Title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) requires that “all appraisals performed in connection with federally insured transactions shall be performed only by individuals certified or licensed in accordance with the requirements of…Title XI.” Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice state in Standards Rule 3 that, “review appraisers should not sign the report under review unless they intend to take the responsibility of a cosigner. A separate report or letter…may be an appropriate method for separating the review from the actual signing of the report.” As a result of these requirements, individual States will not permit anyone other than the licensed or certified appraiser to write on the report. Previously, an underwriter or reviewer wrote comments related to their analysis directly on the appraisal report and signed their name as the reviewer. Typically, underwriters are not licensed or certified appraisers and therefore, this form is necessary to provide them with a consistent method of documenting the analysis and acceptability of the appraisal report. Regulations are found at 12 U.S.C. 3347-3351, Title 12—Banks and Banking, Chapter 34A—Appraisal Subcommittee of Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council.


  1. This information is provided by lenders or FHA staff reviewers and collected only when the reviewer must comment on deficient information contained in the appraisal report. The information collected is used by FHA in monitoring the quality of the lender’s analysis of the appraisal report, identifying areas of weakness for future training, and removing lenders that consistently exhibit careless underwriting and subsequently affect the risk to the Department.


The increase in the numbers of respondents and responses and burden hours are due to the increase in the number of FHA Case number assigned in the past 3 years.


3. The collection of the information can be submitted electronically through the Department’s Internet based

FHA Connection. All other documentation is included in the retained/submitted within the standard case

binder. Automation of that process will be managed under the basic FHA mortgage management process.


4. No duplication exists because each appraisal report is unique.


5. Some lenders may be considered small businesses. However, there is no adverse impact on them as a result of this collection. The burden associated with this process is the minimum needed to make certain the integrity of the FHA insurance fund is maintained.


6. If this information is not collected, the agency would be at risk due to possibly inaccurate, overvalued appraisal reports. This mechanism provides a consistent means for reviewers to document the required detailed analysis of the appraisal report as well as to alert FHA staff to both appraisers and underwriters that may need remedial instructions.


7. There are no special circumstances required in this information collection.


8. In accordance with 5 CFR 1320.8(d), the agency’s notice soliciting public comments was announced in the Federal Register on August 11, 2009 (Vol. 74, No. 153, pages 40217-18). No comments were received.


Lenders and director endorsement (DE) underwriters were surveyed in developing the form, they both expressed a desire for a consistent and clear format for reviewing appraisals since it is not appropriate to write on the appraisal itself. Also, completion of the form itself is neither mandatory nor needed on all appraisals; rather, it is a convenient and recognized method for commenting on appraisal reports deemed deficient, and when clarifying comments are needed to support the decision to accept the appraisal report and its value.


  1. Garry Glavey, Philadelphia HOC “The HUD form 54114 is included in the case file often, this is the only way underwriter can comment on the appraisal report”.

  2. Bill schuler, Santa Ana HOC “HUD form 54114 is only used when the underwriter wants to change the value of the appraisal report and this is not frequent tha tan underwriter will use the HUD form 54114 to change the value of an appraisal report”

  3. James Gullatte, Atlanta HOC “on occasion we see the HUD form in case binder but not that often, underwriters do not like to make a value changes to appraisal”.



9. No payments, gifts, or any remuneration are given to the respondents.


10. There are no assurances of confidentiality provided to respondents. Completed HUD-54114 forms may be

obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.


11. There are no questions posed of a sensitive nature or that are commonly considered private.

*Cost estimates for the Federal Government are based on a $35 per-hour cost that includes overhead, staff preparation time, and review. The cost related to the Federal Government relates to the review of direct endorsement cases that is estimated to be 5 percent of the respondent’s cases reviewed (27,916 x $35.00 = $977,060).


15. This is an extension of a currently approved information collection. The increase in the numbers of respondents and responses and burden hours are due to the increase in the number of FHA Case number assigned in the past 3 years.


16. There are no plans to publish this information.


17. We are not requesting an exemption to displaying the expiration date.


18. There are no exceptions to the certification statement in item 19 of the OMB 83-I.
