certified appraisal

[Cy Shuster]

I thought this was useful, for appraisals in general.

    * Here are a few points that a professional report should have:
          o A complete and accurate description of the property
          o Analysis of the factors affecting value reflecting the 
appraiser's research
            in accordance with the standards required by government 
authorities.
          o A definition of value appropriate to the type of appraisal
          o A value for the property appraised substantiated by the report 
analysis
          o The appraiser's qualification page
          o The appraiser's signature
          o The appraiser's statement that the appraiser does not have a 
financial
            interest in the property
          o You should confirm with the appraiser that the appraiser's 
report can be
            defended in court if needed
