Appraisal Institute President's Message

After years of planning, preparation and hard work, I am proud to announce the AI PAREA pilot program for licensed residential was launched earlier this month.

I encourage our AI Professionals to think about what the Appraisal Institute has meant for you, and for our Designated Members in particular, ask you to consider giving back to the organization through national service.

It is my great pleasure to share with you, as just noted, that the Appraiser Qualifications Board approved AI’s PAREA program for the licensed residential path.

The place we call home is important to us. For the residential appraisers among us, we are tasked with generating an opinion of value for the homeowner’s most cherished place.

I hope you’ll take the time to reflect on what the Appraisal Institute means to you and how we can help to strengthen it in the years ahead. 

I look forward to meeting more AI professionals in the coming months, as well as reconnecting with old friends and colleagues.

I look forward to sharing more in future President’s Messages, but for now I’d like to thank you for the opportunity to serve as AI president.
