Join AAREP for the third installment of our 3-part series in conjunction with CREW DC and ULI Washington. This program will be used to elevate the utility of appraisal reports and valuations in negotiating capital among a broad and diverse audience. The market reflects inequities in access to tools and best practices used to ensure the right values are requested, the report itself is understood, and subsequent negotiations lead to the best financing terms. This discussion can be used to illuminate the “how” and “why” values matter in the realm of capital markets. https://lnkd.in/e5gx6CrG
