2013 Classroom Education:
Huntsville-May 3- "Appraising The Appraisal-Residential"-James Atwood,SRA-New Seminar
Appraisal
review requires a different skill set than traditional appraisal work. In this
seminar, career professionals will gain invaluable insights into client
expectations regarding the content and quality demanded by review assignments.
Designed
specifically for residential appraisers who also review appraisals, the seminar
presents methods for performing review assignments efficiently and effectively.
Real estate professionals involved in appraisal management or who work in
quality control and compliance for financial institutions may find this program
beneficial.
While
exploring techniques and methodologies used by professional reviewers, you will
distinguish features of the ideal appraisal report, identify eight general
categories and examine 14 specific warning signs of a problem appraisal, plus
dig into 7 examples of complex review appraisal assignments. This seminar will
help you spot the most common reporting deficiencies—while avoiding those
deficiencies in your own appraisal reports.
Note: This seminar uses the same textboork as the Appraising the Appraisal: Appraisal Review-General seminar. If you have previously attended this seminar some of the content covering appraisal review theory is similar. However, this seminar focuses on residential appraisal review.
