When: May 12, 2008
Where: Holiday Inn Select - Koger South Conference Center
Cost: $125 for Appraisal Institute Members / $150 for Realtor Members (includes CE credit and lunch)
Attention Brokers: Virginia is now requiring all active brokers whose licenses expire after 6/30/08 to complete 24 hours of CE within their current two year license term. Of the 24 hours of CE required, 8 hours must be Elective Real Estate Related Subjects. The Local Cost Seminar satisfies 7 hours of Elective Real Estate Related Subjects for the broker’s RE CE.
The Local Cost Seminar, to be hosted on May 12, 2008 by the Virginia Commonwealth Chapter of the Appraisal Institute (VCCAI), will provide real estate professionals: appraisers, assessors, brokers, salespeople and lenders a better understanding of development, and the costs associated with residential and commercial construction, as well as redevelopment and condominium conversion. The registrants will be exposed to the tools they need to better understand the aspects of new construction, and in turn be able to explain the aspects of new construction to their clients. Further, they will gain an understanding of how to compare new construction properties more accurately and competitively for listing, selling, lending and valuation purposes. In summary, the goal of this 7 hour seminar is to expand the registrant’s knowledge base on the cost aspects of the various types of construction in the Richmond market area, therefore increasing the registrant’s level of competency and professionalism in service to the Commonwealth of Virginia and the citizens that require their services.
The program welcomes several well known and highly respected local speakers.
