Required for GSE loans since November 2, 2026
Most appraisers are still learning the new report. Jamie DeRossett trained and switched over months before the deadline, so your loans keep moving.
Why it matters
UAD 3.6 takes real training and hands-on practice to get right. Many appraisers waited until it was mandatory to start, which means delays, rejected submissions and revision requests. We began months ago and have been producing compliant reports ever since.
A single dynamic report replaces the legacy form-based reports, with more structured fields and clearer definitions.
Reports arrive as a ZIP with the PDF, XML data and individual JPEG photos, ready for UCDP submission.
Portfolio, HELOC and other non-GSE assignments can be delivered in the format your lender requires.
A note from Fannie Mae
On September 25, 2026, more than a month before UAD 3.6 became mandatory, Fannie Mae's Appraiser Quality Monitoring team wrote to thank Jamie for adopting it.
"We appreciate the effort you have made to implement these changes and your commitment to incorporating UAD 3.6 into your appraisal practice."
