New USPAP Changes Effective January 1, 2010
As we discussed in a post in June, The Appraisal Foundation, a congressionally authorized non-profit organization that fosters professionalism among appraisers by setting qualifications and standards, announced that its Appraisal Standards Board (ASB) adopted revisions for the 2010-2011 edition of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). USPAP are the generally accepted performance and ethical standards for the appraisal profession in the United States. Standards are included for real estate, personal property, business, and mass appraisal. And, these changes go into effect on January 1, 2010.
The Appraisal Foundation has issued a question and answer document that is designed to help answer any questions that might arise. You can visit their website to learn more about all of the changes.
In particular, they have highlighted one revision to USPAP that will affect each assignment starting in 2010. Appraisers will be required to disclose to their client, prior to engagement and in the certification of appraisal reports, “any services regarding the subject property performed by the appraiser within the prior three years, as an appraiser or in any other capacity.”
As always, Present Value is USPAP compliant.
