    Abstract: VA Form 26-6681 solicits information on the fee personnel 
applicant's background and experience in the real estate valuation

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.
