Is a designated appraiser really different from a state licensed (non-designated) one?
Experience is showing the users of appraisal services that not all state regulated appraisers are equal. AI members who hold either the SRA or MAI designation are among the most qualified in the industry. They exceed federally mandated state certification standards, meet exacting education and experience requirements and abide by a strictly enforced Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.
