Early-bird Registration Fee: $10 (until 08/29/24 8AM)

CLASS DESCRIPTION:

We know the appraisal process can be confusing, and you probably have a lot of questions!  Can you talk to the appraiser or meet them at the property for the inspection? Are you allowed to provide the appraiser with sales information or other details? Do you understand what a comparable sale is and why it’s important? And who is the appraisal really for?

You can better serve your clients by knowing whether an appraisal is the same as an inspection, if the taxable value matches the current market value, if the square footage on county records is accurate, and the key aspects of FHA appraisals.

This class will answer all these questions and more! Are you ready to clear up the confusion and become an appraisal pro?
