The 28-Hour Power Weekend is continuing ed for appraisers who would like to complete their license renewal education in one Olympian event.

WARNING: This is the ‘Arnold Schwarzenegger’ version of Appraiser Continuing Education. The series is not intended for the wimpy or faint of heart.

In response to requests from busy appraisers, The Real Estate Academy created The 28-Hour Power Weekend. This is a multi-day continuing ed event for procrastinating appraisers (or those who have been too busy to complete their license renewal requirements). The courses will be offered on consecutive days, enabling the time challenged appraiser to complete 28 hours of CE (or part of the 28 hours) at one event.

Partial enrollment is allowed. If you don’t need your entire 28-hours of CE, you are welcome to enroll in any segment that suits your needs and interests – just click on the title.

Market Value Influence of Real Estate Finance

The growth of the real estate industry is inextricably dependent on the ability to secure third party funding for purchases. The availability of real estate financing and the rate of interest are just two factors of lending that impact the real estate market.

The influence of real estate lending is observed in various market statistics. Ultimately that influence is reflected in property value. The appraiser's grasp of the symbiotic relationship of real estate and finance further market value comprehension.

The Dynamics of Supply and Demand

People tend to buy, and buy more, at lower prices. Likewise, they tend to buy less at higher prices. The implication of this simple principle encompasses an extraordinary range of economic real estate activities.

Central to excellence in appraising is competent analysis of the underlying forces of supply and demand. The course will address these forces.

Legal Liability in Appraisal Practice

The nature of appraisal practice creates an array of risk exposure for the real estate appraiser. Some of this risk exposure is common to most any business, however others are peculiar to appraising. Whatever the source of risk, it is imperative that the appraiser identify personal risk exposure and enact policies and practices to address it.

The course will identify the sources of personal and legal risk to the appraiser. Risk management strategies will be presented, including twelve ways to avoid lawsuits.
