Protecting Integrity. The Appraisal Institute protects the profession's integrity and the appraiser's role by resisting efforts to replace appraisals with less reliable valuation methods.

Lowering unnecessary barriers to entry. The Appraisal Institute works with industry stakeholders to identify and remove unnecessary licensing hurdles that prevent entry into the profession.
