Working Together for Appraisal Success Webinar

An important step in most conservation transactions is obtaining a timely appraisal from a qualified conservation appraiser. Here in Maine (and around the country), the pool of qualified conservation appraisers has appeared to be shrinking, but finding an appraiser is only one of the challenges land trusts may face when working to meet appraisal requirements, especially when the transaction includes grant funding that comes with additional stipulations. In this webinar, we’ll discuss the ongoing partnership effort between the Maine Coast Heritage Trust and the Land Trust Alliance to address these challenges. We’ll introduce our new Checklist for Maine Land Trust Staff Working with Real Estate Appraisers, and hear first-hand from a Maine appraiser about how we can work together to achieve appraisal success.
