New Appraisal Institute Certificate Program on Valuing Historic Preservation Easements
Enhance your knowledge of valuing historic preservation easements.
Ideal for certified real estate appraisers who appraise income-producing properties or single-family homes, IRS agents, real estate attorneys, preservationists and anyone involved in historic preservations, Appraising Historic Preservation Easements provides intensive training and discussion on the valuation of historic preservation easements. This debut certificate program focuses on appraising the value of preservation easements donated as charitable gifts under the Internal Revenue Code. Participants can also apply the methods and techniques learned to the appraisal of preservation easements granted in order to obtain either state or local income tax or property tax deductions/credits.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Explain the similarities and the differences between a conservation easement and a historic preservation easement and interpret recent national legislative and IRS guidelines and initiatives related to the appraisal of both.
- Understand the typical provisions of a historic preservation easement and how to handle the variations in possible easement provisions during the appraisal process.
- Apply the central role of highest and best use analysis in historic preservation easement appraisals both before and after considering the easement.
- Recognize accepted and appropriate techniques for finding, researching and analyzing sales of easement-encumbered properties.
