The Appraisal Foundation Appoints New National Board

The Appraisal Practices Board will be officially constituted July 1, 2010

The purpose of the ABP is to issue voluntary timely guidance to appraisers on emerging valuation issues that are occurring in the marketplace. This guidance will assist appraisers, appraiser regulators and educators. The new Board will enlist the help of market surveys to identify issues that need to be addressed and will empanel small groups of volunteer Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to draft the guidance for review and approval by the Board.

The APB represents the combined judgment of leading valuation professionals and is composed of five to seven members.  Members can serve up to eight years on the Board (terms can be set at 1-, 2- or 3-year increments, at the discretion of the Boards Nominating Committee).
