Effective Communication for Accurate Appraisals

Did you know that real estate agents can—and should—communicate with appraisers to help ensure accurate property valuations? Knowing what information to provide, when to share it, and how to communicate professionally can make a significant difference in your transactions.

In this interactive workshop, you'll learn how to prepare an effective appraisal information package, share relevant comparable sales and property improvements, and advocate for your clients while respecting appraiser independence. We'll also cover what to do when an appraisal comes in lower than expected, how to identify potential errors, and how to navigate the Reconsideration of Value (ROV) process.

Through real-world scenarios, practical examples, and role-playing, you'll gain the confidence to communicate effectively with appraisers and lenders, reduce appraisal-related surprises, and help keep your transactions moving toward closing.
