Appraising for Private Clients: Expanding to Non-Lending Appraisals (CE) 2 days - Virtual
2026-05-26 09:00 - 12:30 (America/Denver)
“Appraising for Private Clients” walks appraisers through the possibilities and requirements of non-lender appraisal work, including tax rebuttal, pre-purchase, prelisting, divorce, estate, and IRS-related work. Students explore the components necessary for private appraisal work, including development steps, assignment conditions, and expectations of reporting. USPAP is examined as the minimum foundation for the development and reporting of the appraisals, and students learn the assignment conditions and client requirements that are unique to various types (intended uses) of private appraisal work. Quality control is also emphasized, to ensure the best work product and reduce errors of omission and commission. General requirements are presented, applicable to most or all appraisal types; specific needs of various types of work are also emphasized throughout units in the course.
The course ensures appraisers are exposed to the whole experience: the first discussion with the client to understand the intended use, additional client discussions to collect necessary assignment elements, the inspection, and the unique aspects of the development and reporting steps for various private appraisal types, such as extraordinary assumptions, effective dates, and other nuances of private appraisal work. The appraiser student will examine how an engagement letter, appropriate for collecting the required assignment elements, proactively avoids pitfalls often associated with private work. From a technical standpoint, appraisers will leave the course having a better understanding of techniques characteristic of strong appraisal work, the varying level of detail for different types of appraisals based on the intended use, as well as how to strengthen their appraisal writing processes for any appraisal.
