Appraiser’s Guide to Appraisal Inspections
Course Description
When is an appraisal inspection required? What should be included?
This course walks you through everything you need to know about appraisal inspections, including best practices, tools, risks and safety, types of inspections, the use of trainees or assistants, and the question of whether an inspection is necessary for any given assignment. It’s a great review for real property appraisers, financial institutions, underwriters, and regulators; commercial appraisers and other property data collectors will also find it useful.

ScanToSketch: Practical Application of Mobile Appraising

ScanToSketch is an advanced sketching feature that allows the appraiser to just walk around the property, mark each of the corners, and get an instant sketch of the exterior footprint. Learn to use this new technology with instructor Joel Baker.
