Every member of our Appraisals Team adheres to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), the only set of standards that govern the profession. This is particularly important for our US-based clients, where the IRS requires that all appraisals be completed by USPAP-compliant appraisers and are submitted with a specific set of requirements.
In addition to being USPAP-compliant, all of our appraisers are members of at least one of the three main American appraisal associations: the Appraisers Association of America; the International Society of Appraisers: and the American Society of Appraisers.
