Topic 2 Overview of Real Estate Appraising

An appraisal is an estimate of the value and a means to convey that estimate to the appraisal user. Appraisals are used in any kind of business transaction where a value is needed for a peice or real estate. They can be used in buying and selling actions as a base for price. They can also be used for property tax evaluation or even be used for insurance companies to determine an insurable amount. The need for a third party to assess value will always be needed for business transactions concerning real estate. The third party appraisor is someone that can be trusted to give an entity value.
