It’s BACK! Our 2021 debut offering of the revival of this long-standing networking and educational event was a HUGE success. Don’t miss our 2022 Monterey Bay Appraisal Seminar. Our 7-hour synchronous (formerly called virtual classroom) format makes it easy to attend from anywhere – no commute, no parking fees . . . no hassles!

The Monterey Bay Appraisal Seminar (MBAS) originated in 1960 as a joint offering sponsored by the Society of Real Estate Appraisers (SREA), The American Society of Appraisers (ASA) and The American Right of way Association (ARWA).   After a hiatus of several years, the Northern California Chapter of the Appraisal Institute is proud to revitalize this iconic, long-standing education and networking event.

Opening Keynote: “California Housing Market and Outlook”
Dr. Gerd Welke
Executive Director of the Real Estate Research Council and Professor of Real Estate Analytics at Cal Poly Pomona

2022 Topics include:
What’s New? Policy Clarifications
Appraisal Compliance Review:  Just What are Reviewers Really Looking For?
SB 9: Residential Appraising in California Just Became a Lot More Complicated!
Cost Approach: Best Practices for Marshall & Swift

While had hoped to “go LIVE” this year with the MBAS, we will have to wait until 2023 to hold this seminar in-person in the scenic Monterey Bay area. However, our 2022 MBAS will include post-conference “live” networking in several easily accessible venues throughout the Monterey Bay Area and beyond. Meet up in-person with your peers and spread good cheer!
