About the Event:
The real estate appraisal profession has evolved greatly with changes in regulations, technology, and competition since 1991 – and the pace of change shows no sign of abating. In short, appraisers are now called upon to do more work for regulatory compliance with less time and fee resources to meet the needs of a dynamic and competitive market place (sound familiar?). Current market forces related to credit availability, collateral value, effective demand and supply are exacerbating the process.
This program will provide participants with an overview of some of the most significant and current regulatory driven aspects of providing commercial real estate appraisal services in Maine today. Topics will include: the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP);a the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act (FIRREA); the Maine Board of Real Estate Appraisers (MBREA); current sources of demand, assignment types, and trends from an appraisers’ perspective. Examples of “real world” logistics of how Banks and other Clients interact with an appraiser from the beginning to end of an assignment will be provided to facilitate a better understanding of the process. You may be surprised at what you learn. Participants are encouraged to bring any/all questions and valuation problems for discussion.
Join us on Wednesday, April 7, 2010 from 7:30 – 9:00 AM at the Hilton Garden Inn, Bangor, 250 Haskell Road, Bangor ME as our panelists provide an overview of some of the rules and regulations of appraising commercial real estate in Maine.
