Does the Foundation advocate on behalf of appraisers?Updated 3 months ago

No, The Appraisal Foundation® (the Foundation) is not a membership organization. Its stakeholders range from appraisers to consumers to regulators. As a 501(c)(3) organization and as an organization authorized by Congress to maintain standards and qualifications, the Foundation does not lobby or advocate. The organization is a resource for federal and state government officials. You can see a full list of federal organizations that have asked the Foundation to assist in a wide range of projects relating to appraisal services here. In 2013, the Obama-Biden Administration also named the Foundation the White House's Valuation Resource.
