The New Reporting Standard
What is UAD 3.6 — and what does it mean for appraisers?
UAD 3.6 (Uniform Appraisal Dataset 3.6) is an updated appraisal reporting standard developed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to make property data more detailed, consistent, and structured.
It introduces a redesigned Uniform Residential Appraisal Report (URAR), replacing the traditional appraisal form-based reporting approach with a more flexible, data-driven format.
For appraisers, this means adapting to new reporting fields, updated property data requirements, and a different way of organizing appraisal information.
Redesigned URAR

New Reporting Fields

Detailed Property Data
More structured and consistent requirements for property information.
A New Organization

Appraiser Challenges
Managing UAD 3.6 reporting can be challenging.
Appraisers already manage several responsibilities throughout the day. Property inspections, comparable research, client communication, and report preparation all require time and attention.
With the introduction of UAD 3.6, adapting to new reporting requirements adds another responsibility to an already demanding workflow.
01
Understanding New Reporting Requirements
Getting familiar with updated data fields, property characteristics, and the redesigned URAR can take time, particularly during the transition.
02
Detailed Property Documentation
Preparing complete property descriptions, condition details, quality information, and supporting documentation requires careful attention.
03
Time-Consuming Report Preparation
Organizing assignment information and preparing report narratives can take valuable time away from inspections and other appraisal responsibilities.
04
Managing Revisions & Missing Information
Incomplete details or inconsistencies can lead to additional questions, corrections, and report revisions.
05
Keeping Up with Assignment Deadlines
Balancing new reporting requirements with existing workloads can make it difficult to maintain a consistent reporting schedule.
This is where having reliable report preparation support can make a difference.
