Performing Estate Appraisals

With interest rates rising and mortgage lending appraisal volume falling, many real property appraisers are turning their attention to appraisal assignments for other intended uses. Appraisals on estate properties can be a way to make up for lost mortgage assignments. They have their advantages; specifically, they don’t require UAD compliance, and you won’t receive any addendum requests from the client. This course will focus on what estate appraisals are, scope of work considerations, and reporting requirements. Finally, marketing will be covered, including some helpful tips on how to attract non-lender clients.

This is a self-paced, online course. You may complete it when and where you choose. You can complete it all in one sitting, if you wish, or you can complete it in bits and pieces at your convenience. There will be quizzes along the way that you must complete in order to advance to the next section.
