National Real Estate Appraiser Job Analysis Survey

Real estate appraisers are invited to participate in a national study of real estate appraisal professionals. The study is a key step in updating The Appraisal Foundation’s Appraiser Qualifications Board (AQB) National Uniform Licensing and Certification Examinations used across the U.S. to help ensure appraisal professionals meet acceptable standards for competent practice.
