Recently I had the pleasure of writing an article that was published on the International Society of Appraisers website. Titled "What is USPAP and Why Is It Important to Hire a USPAP-Compliant Appraiser?" the article provides an overview about the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and explains how USPAP serves to protect the interests of appraisal clients.
I especially enjoyed working with Jean Bean at the International Society of Appraisers headquarters and appreciate her assistance. Have questions about this topic or any others? Feel free to email me at info@afhappraisal.com.
The Journal of Advanced Appraisal Studies is the leading scholarly publication in the fine art and antiques appraisal community. I'm very pleased to have an article I wrote included for publication in the 2016 edition of the Journal forthcoming later this month.
Titled "An Introduction to Appraising Mid-Century Modern Furniture," it is written for a target audience of professional appraisers unfamiliar with Mid-Century Modern and 20th Century Design with the aim of providing them with a useful guide to help determine whether they have competency to complete an appraisal assignment on their own or whether they should consult with a Mid-Century Modern specialist such as myself.
