Diversify Your Appraisal Practice with Estate Appraisals

This course was created to assist appraisers in understanding the necessary requirements and processes when developing appraisals for clients who need to have real property valuations for estate planning and settlement purposes. The course material covers the basic legal terminology, USPAP obligations, forms and format options and other information that an appraiser will need to know when they decide to diversify their practice or fine tune the estate appraisal assignments they might already be performing. Three common types of appraisals and their specific requirements are described in the material along with a class discussion topic, and some bonus material describing real life cases will be offered by the end of the course.
