    Course Description

    Balancing efficiency, credibility, and accuracy can be daunting. Technology increasingly gives appraisers an edge, but only when it is used correctly. This hands-on course answers the practical questions: What are my obligations when I rely on technology? How do analytical tools help me stay objective? What are the concepts behind these tools, and how do I integrate them into daily work? And, how does the analysis reach my report and my work file?

    Using a single running property, from loading the data to a reconciled value, the course demonstrates, through actual live data analysis, how to derive market-based adjustments with trend analysis, paired sales and resales, regression, and AI, then validate and reconcile the results. Every method is taught as a transferable concept: how it looks in one app might differ to how it looks in another app. Advisory Opinion 41 anchors the course — a tool does not comply with or violate USPAP; it is the appraiser who must analyze, make decisions to rely, and own the results.

    Who Should Enroll

    Appraisers. The course is also valuable for AMC professionals, lenders, and regulators who oversee and review technology-assisted valuation work.
