Fair Value vs. Fair Market Value
This class was developed because words can have more than one meaning. Even simple term market value can have a different meaning to a real estate appraiser than it does to a business appraiser, an accountant, or an attorney. Among real estate appraisers, there can be differences of opinion as to the proper basis of a valuation for a property tax assessment, a condemnation action, or a financial report. Appraisers do not generally write the laws; the various codes and case law can be inconsistent and hard to interpret. The seminar relies heavily on examples and case studies to help you understand the diverse ways terms are used and think through how to address the differences when you confront them in an assignment.

Review, Conclusions, Implementation Case Studies
