Day 1 Course | Appraising Green Homes: Construction Methods & Trends

Tuesday, August 22nd | 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

This course is designed to provide information on the rapidly expanding field of green building and introduce participants to all phases of green residential construction, from proper siting of a home to finish material selection. The class begins with an overview of the history of green building and then explains its five key elements in detail. This will provide learners with an in-depth understanding of green building in order to equip you to competently analyze these properties in appraisal assignments. Day 1 course concludes with a discussion on green home certification programs, guidelines and the possible impact on home appraisals.

 

Day 2 Course | Appraising Green Homes: Valuation Techniques and Advanced Applications

Wednesday, August 23rd | 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

This course is intended to provide appraisers with the information and resources needed to make well-supported and accurate valuation decisions for green properties. Day 2 course begins with an overview of the most current data available for the valuation of green homes, then presents the cost approach as it applies to these properties. Participants will then perform an in-depth analysis of the sales comparison approach and valuation techniques that can be applied to green properties.

The latter part of the day uses the valuation techniques from earlier in the day and directly applies it to appraisal case studies, which will provide tools that can be integrated into real-world practice. Upon passing a formal exam, the student will be able to use the designation of Accredited Green Appraiser.
