A Roadmap to Reporting on the New URAR
As of January 26, 2026, the redesigned Uniform Residential Appraisal Report (URAR) is now in broad production.
Any lender may request appraisal reports delivered in the new UAD 3.6 format, making adoption no longer optional for today's appraisers.
This 4-hour CE course provides clear, practical guidance to help appraisers understand the new reporting structure, avoid compliance issues, and confidently adapt to today's appraisal standards
What has Changed with URAR & UAD 3.6
- Dynamic Report: A single, flexible report replaces fixed forms, with sections and fields that adjust to property characteristics.
- Data-Driven: Reports adjust based on property and loan type, improving relevance and consistency.
- Machine-Readable: Structured data supports automation, review efficiency, and risk management.
- Integrated Content: Photos and commentary are embedded directly within the report—no separate addenda.
- Updated Standards: Built on MISMO 3.6, expanding data granularity and alignment with industry standards.
- Compliance Tools: APIs support appraisers and vendors in meeting new requirements.
Why this Matters for Today's Appraiser
- Appraisers: More efficient reporting with standardized, compliant data entry
- Lenders: Faster reviews and clearer risk assessment
- Industry: Higher data quality, consistency, and regulatory confidence
