Maloney also covered in detail the several steps of USPAP's Appraisal Process which guide the appraiser in the development of an opinion of value as well as in communicating those opinions to the client by means of the appraisal report.
Information required to be in reports as well as the sources that drive that content were also addressed as was sample wording for the many elements of information required to be in a USPAP-compliant appraisal report.
