    Course Description
    Almost everyone is familiar with the now worn-out phrase, “thinking outside the box.” It is an attempt to encourage people to be creative by moving beyond the simple and the routine. This seminar coins a new, similar phrase for residential real estate appraisers: “thinking outside the form.” Designed with a three-fold purpose: to review appraisal standards required for appraisal reporting; to provide practical ways to supplement residential report forms with techniques and examples that improve compliance with appraisal standards and produce meaningful and understandable reports; and to suggest and promote alternatives to mortgage appraisal assignments and encourage residential appraisers to search for new appraisal products and business opportunities.
