Directions
Apply the principles and concepts learned in Basic Appraisal Principles. This 30-hour course takes you step-by-step through the valuation process:
- Defining the problem
- Collecting and analyzing data
- Reaching a final opinion of value
- Communicating the appraisal
Learn about the three approaches to reaching an opinion of value (income capitalization, cost, and sales comparison) and apply them in true-to-life case studies and problems. After examining income capitalization methods and formulas, discover how rates and multipliers are derived. Through case studies, apply the steps and concepts of the cost approach, i.e., how appraisers estimate the cost of constructing a reproduction of or replacement for an existing structure; the three major components of depreciation; methods for estimating and allocating depreciation; and land and site valuation.
