What is an
appraiser?
An
appraiser
is
one
who
develops
and
reports
an
opinion
of
value
on a
specific
type
of
property.
Appraisers
may
opt
to
specialize
in
various
disciplines
such
as:
- Real Property appraisal, which is the valuation of real estate. Real Property appraisers can choose specialties to practice within such as residential, commercial and agricultural.
- Personal Property appraisal, which encompasses all types of personal property such as fine and decorative arts, antiques, gems and jewelry and machinery and equipment.
- Business Valuation which is the valuing of businesses including all tangible and intangible assets ranging from the value of the equipment to the value of the business name or logo
- Mass Appraisal which encompasses techniques that are used when valuing multiple types of real property or personal property using general recognized formulas.
While
most
appraisers
choose
to
specialize
in
just
one
area
of
practice,
many
appraisers
practice
in
more
than
one
discipline.
The Appraiser
Qualifications Board
(AQB) of The
Appraisal Foundation
