What is the purpose of the "AEA-EDU.com" website?
The website "AEA-EDU.com" aims to provide appraisers with educational resources and information.
●
The website is the Education & Information Division of American Eagle Appraisal, PLLC.
●
It offers quality and timely appraisal and appraisal-related education programs along with timely appraisal and appraiser-related information to keep appraisers informed and on top of changes in the field.
●
The website aims to address some of the challenges appraisers face, such as the impact of licensing and the Dodd-Frank Act on the appraisal profession.
●
Before appraiser licensing became mandatory in the late 1980s and early 1990s, appraisers typically belonged to appraisal companies and professional organizations that offered educational courses and fostered a sense of community and an ethics code.
●
The introduction of licensing and the Dodd-Frank Act led to a decline in the perceived value of these organizations, causing many appraisers to discontinue their professional organization memberships.
●
Additionally, the emergence of Appraisal Management Companies (AMCs) further impacted appraisers' income by negotiating lower fees with lenders.
●
AEA-EDU.com seeks to provide support and resources to appraisers in this evolving landscape.
●
Visitors to the website can sign up to receive notifications when new content is added. All postings are dated, so users can quickly identify new information.
