Major changes are coming to the appraisal process later this year—and they could impact how homes are valued, how reports are written, and how lenders review collateral.

Join AREAA for a special Lunch & Learn featuring appraisal expert and National Speaker Michael Simmons of Axis Appraisal Management Solutions as he breaks down the big appraisal changes real estate and mortgage professionals need to understand before they take effect.

Whether you’re listing a home, structuring a loan, or negotiating a purchase contract, these updates could affect pricing strategies, underwriting decisions, and transaction timelines.

In this session, we’ll cover:

  • The new appraisal reporting format and what’s changing
  • How valuation methods and data sources are evolving
  • What lenders will be looking for in appraisal reports
  • Potential impacts on purchase transactions and refinances
  • Tips for Realtors and loan originators to avoid appraisal surprises
This session will provide practical insights you can use immediately in your business, along with the opportunity to ask questions and connect with industry peers.


Please contact 2026 President Harvey Young at (408) 661-4121 and Michelle Velez at shellvelez@gmail.com with any questions.
