Residential Leasehold Playbook (non-CE) - Virtual
2026-02-19 12:00 - 16:00 (America/Denver)
Get ready for a practical, step-by-step playbook for valuing leasehold interests—a deep dive into standard residential ground leases, with an overview of other lease types. You’ll start by getting crystal clear on property rights (leasehold vs. leased fee vs. fee simple) and why the “rights appraised” drive both value and comparable selection. From there, we walk through the real-world requirements that apply to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and FHA, including minimum terms, key clauses, and required reporting components.
The heart of the course is valuation methodology: how to select comps using a consistent process and how to support property rights adjustments using matched-pair logic and income-based techniques. We’ll cover value approaches, hypothetical conditions, and how to produce a report that is both compliant and easy for the user to follow.
Case studies tie everything together—so you can apply the concepts and methods to your work immediately. You’ll leave with job aids for methods, reference materials, and a clear set of best practices to reduce revision requests and help you sign leasehold appraisal reports with confidence.
This seminar presentation is not a solicitation for vendors to join panels and Walitt Solutions does not maintain or solicit vendor panels or provide appraisal management services. However, participants who complete the training have an opportunity to share their completion certificates with the sponsors.
With time for questions at the end, this training is anticipated to last 4 hours.

Reporting Market Analysis and Better Understanding the New URAR (CE) - Virtual
2026-02-24 08:00 - 12:00 (America/Denver)
The new Uniform Residential Appraisal Report (URAR) challenges appraisers to deliver a report in a confident manner to clients with a credible analysis that meets the minimum reporting requirements of the Government-Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs). Unlike the existing 1004 report form, the new URAR places more emphasis on supporting and reporting a thorough market analysis for the subject property. In the past, appraisers often kept the market analysis support in the workfile. Going forward, support is expected within the appraisal report. Reporting Market Analysis and Better Understanding the New URAR is a four-hour program that focuses on lending assignments for residential properties using the new URAR. Appraisers who are not well versed in completing a thorough and credible market analysis will find this program to be most helpful. The program will also be a good refresher for the experienced appraiser and the reviewer of residential reports.

Supporting Adjustments and Reporting the Sales Comparison Approach in the New URAR (CE) - Virtual
2026-03-31 09:00 - 12:00 (America/Denver)
The new Uniform Residential Appraisal Report (URAR) challenges appraisers to deliver a report in a confident manner to clients with a credible analysis that meets the minimum reporting requirements of the Government-Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs). The new URAR requires that support for adjustments be included directly in the appraisal report, so residential practitioners need to understand the expectations of the GSEs and underwriters around these topics. Supporting Adjustments and Reporting the Sales Comparison Approach in the New URAR is a three-hour program that focuses on an effective manner of developing and supporting the sales comparison approach section of the new URAR. Case studies will represent real-world residential appraisal valuation problems and the multiple qualitative and quantitative ways that each of the major adjustments in a residential sales grid can be supported. Since the applicable and appropriate techniques for any specific adjustment usually produce some variation in the indicated contributory value, the art and science of reconciliation will also be emphasized through repeated application. The program will be valuable for residential appraisers to strengthen their proficiency in both the sales comparison approach and in supporting the adjustments used in the sales grid. The program will also be valuable for reviewers of residential reports.

Scope of Work and the New URAR (CE) - Virtual
2026-05-21 09:00 - 13:00 (America/Denver)
The new dynamic URAR is the result of a joint effort between Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the GSEs). This represents the most significant overhaul of the mortgage lending appraisal requirements in 20 years. The new URAR is a true “uniform” report, in that it is intended for many different property types (detached dwellings, co-ops, condos, manufactured homes, 2-4 unit dwellings) and it incorporates the appraisal requirements for both the private sector (the GSEs) and the government (FHA, USDA, VA).
This course is intended to supplement the 7-hour URAR training course that was produced by the GSEs. It takes a deep-dive into the scope of work for a GSE appraisal, particularly information that must be gathered and reported that is different than what had previously been required.

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.
