<p>[QUOTE=&quot;blsmothermon, post: 1050573, member: 26158&quot;]I would agree with the above opinions. Contact your ASA <a href="http://www.appraisers.org/AboutUs/Regions.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.appraisers.org/AboutUs/Regions.aspx" rel="nofollow">local chapter</a> about their guidance, join the ANA, pass the ANA <a href="http://www.money.org/Content/NavigationMenu/ExploretheWorldofMoney/Education/NumismaticDiplomaProgram/default.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.money.org/Content/NavigationMenu/ExploretheWorldofMoney/Education/NumismaticDiplomaProgram/default.htm" rel="nofollow">Diploma Program</a>, and <a href="http://www.pngdealers.com/category.php?category_id=28" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pngdealers.com/category.php?category_id=28" rel="nofollow">join the PNG as an affiliate member</a> (not general since you&#039;re not a dealer). Being a ASA, ANA, PNG member binds you to a code of ethics (USPAP, etc.) that gives you a built-in sense of accountability. Also, for some classes, even though they oversee Real Property, your state appraisal board (the one that licenses R. E. Appraisers), state chapter of IAAO, state chapter of the Appraisal Institute, etc. can be helpful, because alot of appraisal classes can be applicable to ALL types of appraisal. There are alot of differences between R. E. Appraisal vs. Chattel Appraisal, but when it does come down to it you are giving an &quot;educated opinion of market value&quot; regardless of material. I hope this helps.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><font size="1"><i>This is my opinion as a county Real Estate Appraiser, Arkansas Senior Appraiser (Level IV), Member of IAAO (International Association of Assessing Officers), and Residential Evaluation Specialist Candidate. I have been doing real estate appraisal for tax purposes for about 6 years. I have taken and passed more appraisal exams than I care to mention, including USPAP.</i></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
