It’s designed to provide a consistent means of calculating and communicating the living area of a house among real estate professionals based on the ANSI standard.
Discover the importance of the MLS and Public Records on the future of the entire real estate industry.
This course highlights the growing concerns over “quality” information used in the determination of home values throughout the real estate industry and offers real estate professionals a stronger understanding of the Public Records system and the “state of information crisis” looming over the real estate and appraisal industries.
A comprehensive guide on how to keep your appraising credibility
Appraiser’s Guide to Covering Your Appraisals is a course designed for use by real property appraisers, financial institutions, underwriters, AMC personnel, and regulatory entities. The focus of the course is to bring awareness of the many common mistakes appraisers make that often lead to disciplinary action to the practicing appraiser and other users of appraisal services. This course is primarily targeted toward residential real property appraisers; however, it does apply to both residential and commercial appraisers alike.
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.
