estimate of the reasonable value of a
property, or of a specified type of
property, within a stated area for the
purpose of justifying the extension of
credit to an eligible veteran (38 CFR
36.4301). The fee appraiser’s estimate of
value is reviewed by a VA staff
appraiser or lender’s staff appraisal
reviewer who uses the data to establish
the VA reasonable value (38 U.S.C.
3710(b)(4), (5), (6) and 3731(f)(1)),
which becomes the maximum loan
guaranty amount an eligible veteran can
obtain.

hours.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: 30 minutes.
Frequency of Response: One time.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
2,000 per year.
By direction of the Secretary.

Department Clearance Officer, Office of
Quality, Privacy and Risk, Department of
