    paragraph_quote: '22. Reconsideration of Value Change Date March 11, 2019 • This
      chapter has been revised in its entirety. a. Written Request After the NOV has
      been issued, the Veteran may request reconsideration of value in writing by
      contacting the RLC of jurisdiction. If the request is submitted to the RLC through
      the lender, the SAR is encouraged to research market data and provide a recommendation
      to the RLC with the Veteran’s request. b. Market Data Providing market data
      in support of the request, as described in Chapter 10, Topic 8, of this Handbook,
      is encouraged, but not required. A market data grid is not required. c. Review
      by VA staff Within 5 business days, VA staff will review the appraisal report,
      additional submitted data, as well as the market data available through VA’s
      AMS. In some cases, VA staff may conduct a field review which will be completed
      within 20 business days. If VA staff determines that an increase in value is
      appropriate, VA will issue an amended NOV. VA Pamphlet 26-7, Revised Chapter
