The Year of Adaption – ASA-NAIFA Eastern Region Appraisal Conference

The idea of adaption has loomed throughout the appraisal profession over the past year. However, with COVID19 striking close to home, new and innovative ways have emerged to bring a sense of normalcy. One of the many pioneers of adaption has been ASA-NAIFA New Jersey State Educational Committee and Conference Chair, Robert A. Solotist, ASA, IFA. In a short period, they were able to bring the ASA-NAIFA Eastern Region Appraisal Conference to the comfort of your home.

Held on June 9-10, 2021, on a virtual platform, the conference touched upon important topics such as Economics, the Pandemic and the Real Estate Industry; Conflict Resolution; Current Trends in Sustainable building Techniques, impact on Value and Marketability; Appraiser Liability and Risk Management; Appraising for Regional and Community Banks; Winning at Tax Appeals, and Appraising Casinos using the cost approach. As part of a long-standing tradition for the event, a portion of the proceeds and donations from our Sponsors and registrants were graciously presented to Goryeb Children’s Hospital on behalf of the Conference.

For many years the Conference has selected local charitable organizations to receive funds collected at the event as a way to give back and make a difference in the community.

As we find more ways to adapt, we thank those who were able to attend this event.

Thank you to our sponsors:
