We strive to position our members for success with One AI Advocacy
Defending the profession. The Appraisal Institute is the only professional organization defending and promoting real estate appraisers in Washington, D.C. and the states.
Streamlining licensing. The Appraisal Institute strongly supports all efforts to create efficiencies in the state-based licensing and education approval process, including the Portal for Appraiser Licensing (PAL) Act currently pending in Congress.
Promoting transparency. The Appraisal Institute believes that consumers deserve to know how each and every dollar that they are paying in real estate transaction costs is being allocated.
Limiting liability. The Appraisal Institute supports the passage of appraiser-centric statutes of limitations that provide certainty to practitioners that they cannot be sued after a specified period of time.
Eliminating barriers to entry. AI works regularly with all industry stakeholders to identify and overcome licensing requirements that serve as unnecessary barriers to entry into the profession.
Invest in 2025 . . . the Future is Now!
Your continued support ensures AI can keep moving forward together.
Advocacy
The Appraisal Institute advocates the interests of its members and the broader profession, making sure your voice is heard on Capitol Hill, in the state houses and in your local communities by forming strong coalitions at state and federal levels while focusing on numerous issues critical to appraisers.
With our One AI Advocacy guiding principles, we have identified six advocacy priorities that help our team set goals and guide our day-to-day work.
New Series
Every first and third Thursday of the month, the Appraisal Institute is gathering experts to share their knowledge and answer your pressing questions in our new webinar series, Trending Topics.
This series is designed to empower the appraisal community and curious professionals in related industries, offering diverse perspectives on the topics that matter most to appraisers in the moment.
