2024-2025 7-Hour National USPAP Update Course @ Costa Mesa
Jan 26 all-day
This required 7-hour continuing education course, copyrighted by The Appraisal Foundation, focuses on USPAP requirements for ethical behavior and competent performance by appraisers. The first part of the course addresses the changes to USPAP, which are effective January 1, 2024, and the second focuses on cases studies that challenge you how to apply USPAP to situations you encounter in your daily practice. The course will help you gain competency in USPAP, and it will help those subject to state licensing or certification and continuing education requirements imposed by professional organizations, client groups, or employers gain competency as well.
In the past, the Advisory Opinions and Frequently Asked Questions, which were required materials for the course, were bundled with the USPAP publication. Now they are contained in a separate publication, USPAP Guidance and Reference Manual. This manual provides examples showing the applicability of standards in specific situations and offers advice from the ASB for resolving appraisal issues and problems. It also contains the Reference Index which is a highly useful tool that helps appraisers quickly find answers to USPAP-related questions. This new Guidance and Reference Manual is included with your course handbook. Please note, however, that USPAP 2024, which includes Standards 1-10 and is required for the course, must be purchased separately.

Federal and California Statutory and Regulatory Law @ DoubleTree Hotel
Feb 15 @ 12:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Notes

FEDERAL and CALIFORNIA STATUTORY and REGULATORY LAWS
Mandatory Requirement for Initial State Licensing / Certification (QE) and Renewal (CE) Includes the required open-book exam.

Appraisers recognize that they have regulatory obligations but understanding which ones apply when doing federally related and real estate related lender work is challenging. A review of sanctions and disciplinary actions taken against appraisers by the Bureau of Real Estate Appraisers makes it clear that many details and nuances of the appraiser laws and regulations are being misunderstood. Common, unintentional errors impact both the reputations of individual appraisers as well as confidence in the competency and ethics of the appraisal profession. This seminar is designed to help you recognize and understand the laws and regulations most important to appraisers practicing in California.

– Learn about the revised & reduced AQB RP Appraiser Qualification Criteria effective May 2018
– Understand the context of and recent amendments to the California “Laws” & “Regs”
– Find out about your new “mini-resume” on the BREA website
– Understand BREA’s new & revised definitions that affect your daily appraisal practice
– Become familiar with the new Federal & California Appraisal Management Company (AMC) Laws & Regs
– Look out for these BREA laws that result in immediate license suspension

TOPIC:  Public Agency Valuation Considerations for Properties to Have No “Market”

TOPIC / SUMMARY OF PRESENTATION

 

Appraisers that provide valuation services to public agencies encounter assignments involving a myriad of challenging property types and conditions.  Examples include special-use properties, various types of easements and partial acquisitions, properties with multiple zones of value, unique surplus property dispositions, budgetary analysis requests with limited information available, retrospective valuations, and others.

 

This presentation will examine situations where no “markets” exist for properties that public agencies need appraised.  To this end, it will explain in detail an economic condition known as “bilateral-monopoly” (one buyer, one seller).  It will shed light on why values, in these instances, are indeterminable and what an appraiser can and should do about this dilemma.  It will provide several bilateral-monopoly case studies and some recommended “do’s” and “don’ts” to appraisers practicing in this area.

Complex Valuation Course @ Ayres Hotel and Suites
Apr 19 @ 8:00 am – 4:30 pm

Notes

Complex Valuation is a new course developed to give appraisers the skills to value both detrimental and beneficial conditions. The field of “complex valuation” involves the real estate characteristics that are “atypical.” (Federal Regulations Part 34.42.).

Many, if not most, valuation assignments involve a straightforward application of the cost, income and sales comparison approaches to value. However, frequently complex issues arise that involve either beneficial or detrimental conditions that can influence the value of real estate. For example, beneficial conditions might result in an increase in value, such as discovering minerals or oil on grazing land. Detrimental conditions could result in a diminution in value, such as natural disasters or environmental contamination.

As real estate appraisers, understanding these complexities helps in developing a credible opinion of value in these types of assignments. Although many complex issues are addressed throughout appraisal literature and coursework, they are not presented as a single framework. The purpose of the Complex Valuation course is to provide real estate appraisers with a comprehensive understanding of the topic and focus on these various property conditions and the valuation methodologies to address them. Instructors present with a comprehensive PowerPoint presentation.
