    All of our appraisal reviews of 1-to-4, condo and coop unit residential properties reflect a risk based approach that is commensurate with the size, type and complexity of the credit transaction. NY Metro Appraisal Services will not change the value conclusion in an appraisal but authenticate the methodology, quality and authenticate the comparable sales used for an original appraiser to have rendered his or her opinion of value including the impact that sales concessions as well as cash or non-cash contributions provided by a party to the transaction and that reduce a purchaser’s cost and how that contribution has upon the market value of the property.
