Course description:
In my class, you’ll get up-to-date information from attorney Peter Christensen about what is really happening in the courts and in administrative bodies relating to alleged discrimination in appraising from an attorney who is presently handling cases and investigations. You’ll learn keyways to work on eliminating bias and reduce your legal risk. You’ll also learn why “cultural competency” knowledge and skills are truly important for appraisers – you’ll see how a lack of cultural competency has led appraisers into legal quagmires.
Instructor: Peter Christensen
I serve as General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer to BBG Inc., a nationwide commercial real estate appraisal and property assessment firm. I also teach classes and speak about valuation-related legal topics to appraisers, lenders and regulators.
I am a member of the California, Montana and Washington state bars, as well as a licensed insurance broker. After earning my BS and JD degrees at U.C. Berkeley, I began my legal career at Latham & Watkins LLP. I later served as general counsel to the largest provider of professional liability insurance to appraisers and valuation businesses.
I enjoy traveling the country to meet with and teach my classes to valuation professionals, lenders and regulators – so far, I’ve taught classes in 48 states. I’m based in Bozeman, Montana and serve as a public representative on the Montana Board of Real Estate Appraisers. I also serve as a board member of Eval.com, a company that provides real estate evaluation services to financial institutions nationwide.
Course Description
Mandatory Requirement for Initial State Licensing / Certification (QE) and Renewal (CE)
Includes the required open-book exam
Instructor: Jacinto A. Munoz, MAI, SRA, AI-GRS, AI-RRS
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
