Any appraiser curious about how their reports may be reviewed, and any reviewers interested in another appraisal review tool.
Instructor Information
Jack Young, ASA | President | NorCal Valuation
During the S&L crisis of the late 1980s, on the day that the US congress
authorized the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP),
Jack was auditing a failed California S&L, surrounded by stacks and file
cabinets full of appraisals that were nearly impossible to make sense of. Over
the years, as he continued to review loan files at financial institutions, he
experienced first hand how appraisals became more comparable and standardized
under USPAP.
Today USPAP is an integral part of the appraisal industry in which Jack works
and serves. He is a past president of the northern California chapter of the
American Society of Appraisers, serves on the chair of the ASA committee for
international appraisal review and management, and appraises equipment and
machinery throughout California. He also wrote and continues to teach the
appraisal review and management accreditation classes currently being offered by
the ASA.
