This course will cover best practices for measuring residential dwellings and will focus primarily on the ANSI Z765-2021 Standard, which is the only nationwide standard for measuring properties that has been adopted by state appraisal regulatory agencies. The course will also address guidelines and requirements for measuring GLA and GBA established by other entities, such as HUD/FHA. 

This course addresses the numerous factors that an appraiser should consider when it comes to accepting and completing hybrid, bifurcated, and desktop appraisal assignments. Beginning in March 2022, desktop appraisals will be available for some mortgage loans. This course has been updated with Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's guidelines on how to complete the 1004 desktop/70D appraisal form . Complying with USPAP, mitigating risk, understanding the intended use, identifying the relevant characteristics, and verifying data from secondary sources, are just some of the considerations that are examined in this course. In addition, practical application examples and illustrations are plentiful in this course.

Course Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:
• Recognize the potential future use and limitations of hybrid or bifurcated appraisals. 
• Summarize how the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice relates to hybrid, bifurcated, and desktop appraisal assignments 
• Evaluate the reliability of a data source by using various sources and processes. 
• Explain the appraiser’s responsibilities for relying on work done by appraisers or others.
