Course Description

Assigned to appraise a rental property? It it sorely lacking in comparable sales? Consider the income approach, one of three traditional methods of valuing properties (alongside the sales comparison approach and the cost approach).

You’ll learn how to convert income or potential income into an indication of market value, how to consider prevailing market rents and current rental market conditions, and when to select this approach from your appraiser’s toolkit and deploy it in your analysis.

One of the best courses taken, mostly due to Bryan being an engaging speaker. Have had a couple where the presenter was most effective at putting me to sleep.

DanielAppraiser

The course exceeded my expectations. I found it to be very informative and expanded many of the items in USPAP. I would recommend it to other appraisers.

EdAppraiser
