USPAP and Functional Obsolescence?! You ask, “Tim, haven’t you covered this topic here on the podcast, as well as a bunch of other times, places, venues, and symposia?” Yes I surely have. But that was the other functional obsolescence. Today, on this podcast, I’m going to talk about the true functional obsolescence. Yes, the functional […]

There are some of our appraisal fellows whose grasp of the concept USPAP and Competence is yet to be as strong as it could or should be. In a 15-ish minute podcast, it is simply not possible to look into this subject with any depth or conviction. So we won’t. But we will look at

This podcast sports a metaphysical title. “USPAP: Questions and Reflections”. Why this title? Who in their right mind wants to think about USPAP? B-O-R-I-N-G! I’ll concede that point. But somebody has to think about it. And, as a USPAP instructor, I get paid to think about it. Really, I get paid to teach it. But

USPAP and the Public Trust is a topic we appraisers do not address all that often. Perhaps we should, since there is confusion on the issue. At the base of this confusion is the fact appraisers think our job is to protect the public (i.e., the buyer, the lender, the client, the borrower, etc). In

When you think about USPAP and ROVs (Reconsiderations of Value), gentle and peaceful thoughts are not what come to mind. Somebody wants you to reconsider your value conclusion. That is a gentle way to say, “I think you’ve made a mistake!” But let’s face facts – we all make mistakes. And given the state of

There’s a lot of crap on the Internet about civilization’s pending collapse. There is even stuff on the Internet about USPAP and Sasquatch. But there is nothing on the Internet about USPAP and Hot Sauce. So, I figured I’d add to the Internet’s mindless clutter and post about Hot Sauce, USPAP, their relationship, and the

WOW! “USPAP, Sasquatch, NAR, and Comparable Sales” is one helluva name for a podcast! That’s true, thank you. But given that the ramifications of the Sitzer-Burnett are obvious but still unknown, invoked Sasquatch. And the fact cash equivalency adjustments to comparable sales may become more prevalent than in times past brought all of those concepts

USPAP, analysis, and synthesis are terms we do not hear all that often. That’s a shame, too. This is because, according to USPAP, a credible appraisal and a non-misleading report are the results of analysis and synthesis. Yes, Standard One is the appraisal development standard. And Standard Two is the appraisal reporting standard. But we
