VA Pamphlet 26-7, Chapter 11 (Appraisal Report), Topic 19 — Appraiser Training a New Appraiser
• This Chapter has been revised in its entirety. a. Training for New Appraisers VA understands the importance of appraisers providing training to new appraisers and is supportive of appraisers who are dedicating their time to training others who are pursuing a career as an appraiser. b. Visiting Properties Trainees may accompany the VA-assigned appraiser when visiting the property. c. Assistance From Trainee A trainee or another appraiser may assist in any part of the appraisal yet the analysis establishing value must be performed by the VA-assigned fee appraiser. The appraiser must select the comparable sales, perform all critical analyses contained in the appraisal report, and prepare the Market Conditions Addendum. d. Reporting Trainee’s Name and Work Performed If a trainee or another appraiser provided assistance or participated in the preparation of the appraisal, the appraiser must provide the name of the trainee or appraiser in the report and describe their role in developing the appraisal. Only the VA-assigned fee appraiser may sign the appraisal report.
Operationalizing VA Lenders Handbook (VA Pamphlet 26-7), Chapter 11, Topic 19 — Appraiser Training a New Appraiser
This is verbatim, source-snapshotted regulator text from the Claude for Compliance open corpus. To turn a rule like this into compliance work product: gap-analyze your policies and procedures (P&Ps) against these requirements to surface stale, conflicting, or missing provisions; operationalize any change with a ready-to-run update kit; and produce audit-ready evidence — every step grounded only in the regulator’s own words, never invented.
To work from the whole rulebook rather than this one page: download the corpus — every register on this site, verbatim, each with its source snapshot and effective date — then follow the methodology. It asks your assistant to answer only from the downloaded text, cite the register id and effective date it used, and tell you when the corpus does not cover something instead of filling the gap from memory. Running it locally also means no one sees which regulations you are looking at.
