Hi,
The most important qualities that an appraiser should have is that he should be a good analyst, someone with high observation skills and one who reports the truth to the client. It would have helped had you been more precise with your question as to how you were cheated upon.
But, it so happens that people with very limited qualification and knowledge actually fail to deliver, leaving the client distraught.
Thanks,

1.32 Serve as a guide to its own members in achieving competency in appraisal practice and in adhering to ethical standards;
1.33 Aid in the accomplishment of the purposes of the Society, which include:
1. Fosterage of appraisal education,
2. Improvement and development of appraisal techniques,
3. Encouragement of sound professional practices,
4. Establishment of criteria of sound performance for use of employers of staff appraisers,
5. Enforcement of ethical conduct and practice by its members;
1.34 Provide means, auxiliary to those used in examining applicants for admission to the grades of Members and Senior Member of the Society, for judging their skill, competence, and understanding of ethical principles;
1.35 Epitomize those appraisal practices that experience has found to be effective in protecting the public against exploitation.
Hi, from my experience in this industry what i can guess is that you were lied upon by some appraiser of a property or a casualty insurance company as these are the two primary fields with which they are actually associated with. Am I right? Ronald Miller _________________ Register Now to have your Insurance queries solved.
