You’ll recognize that market analysis is integral to highest and best use, and that highest and best use is integral to market value. You’ll also learn how to produce credible results in appraisal to develop opinions of market value. Finally, by the end of the course, you’ll be able to answer these three significant questions: What information is needed to test for highest and best use? Where is this information found? How is this information applied? AICP members may be able to earn Certification Maintenance (CM) credits for this activity. Visit www.planning.org/cm for a list of approved offerings. Note.
