There are many reasons why a second appraisal may be required when it comes to the FHA’s minimum property standards. If the original appraisal expires or there is a closing delay, for example, a second appraisal might be required. To log a second appraisal for a single property, authorized users can sign into the FHA Connection and follow the steps outlined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD): Sign into FHAC and access the Appraisal Logging page. Enter the case number assigned to the mortgage in the FHA case number field and click "send." Review the original appraisal submission by clicking the View Electronic Appraisal link at the top of the page. Review the messages displayed on the Appraisal Logging Update page and take any necessary action to fix errors and be compliant. Enter any additional required information. Click on the Appraisal Logging Update page to process the page and save the electronic appraisal information.
