  • Chicago, IL (1888PressRelease) August 21, 2010 - The 2010 edition of Journal of Advanced Appraisal Studies contains eighteen in depth original research articles, reviews and topical discussions relating to personal property appraisal. While the Journal is targeted primarily at professional property appraisers, it also contains useful insights and information for anyone associated with the business of personal property such as auction houses, estate lawyers, insurance brokerage houses, museums and cultural property conservators.

    According to Michael Conner Ph. D, ISA-AM, the mission of the Foundation is to "promote the advancement of education related to personal property appraising."

One interesting article by Jane C. Brennom, ISA CAPP titled "Appraisers vs Authenticators" delves into the role of the professional appraiser as an authenticator as well as an appraiser. This article is available on the Journal website at http://www.foundationforappraisaleducation.org/journal.html.
