Does USPAP® control how appraisal reporting forms are developed and written, what they say, or how they should be used?Updated 3 months ago

The Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP®) does not dictate the form, format, or style of appraisal reports. It is the position of the Appraisal Standards Board (ASB) that it is the appraiser, not a form, that complies with USPAP®. Each assignment is different, and no form can cover all USPAP® requirements. 

Appraisal report forms are simply tools used to organize the reporting of assignment results, and it is common for appraisers to supplement a form with addenda to comply with USPAP® requirements.
