Defend your adjustments with market extracted and supported data.
This course was created to provide a broad review of basic techniques and procedures for deriving market adjustments and extracting them from available market data. The course examines the wealth of data in the public records system and explores multi-variable regression analyses (sometimes called automated valuation models), the MLS, as well as the appraiser’s own files. Specifically, this course identifies ways in which time adjustments, size adjustments and amenity adjustments can be extracted and measured from market data. This is in keeping with USPAP and FannieMae Selling Guide requirements for adjustments.
