About the event
Did you know that the square footage advertised in an MLS listing may differ from what an appraiser reports? With evolving appraisal reporting requirements and the use of ANSI Z765-2021 measurement standards, it's more important than ever for real estate agents to understand how property measurements can affect listings, CMAs, and client expectations.
In this interactive workshop, Kale Realty agents will learn why square footage discrepancies occur, how appraisers distinguish between above-grade and below-grade living areas, and how finished basements, attics, ceiling heights, and bonus rooms are classified.
What You'll Learn:
Understanding ANSI Standards: Why standardized property measurements matter and how they relate to appraisal reporting changes.
What Counts as Square Footage: The differences between above-grade, below-grade, nonstandard, and noncontinuous finished areas.
Avoiding Listing Mistakes: How to identify potential discrepancies between MLS records, assessor data, and appraisal measurements.
