2.2.1. Oral Appraisal Reports. Oral appraisal reports are not permitted under these Standards. An oral report is inconsistent with the intended use and intended users of an appraisal prepared for federal acquisitions. Even with the appraiser’s workfile available, an oral report does not satisfy agency record-keeping requirements, and cannot be reliably reviewed. The number of intended users of appraisals in federal acquisitions also makes such a practice impossible.
