Become an
Agricultural Appraiser

I would like to thank everyone in the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers home office for being so helpful and supportive every time that I call. Their help and advice is great. I would also like to thank them for the referrals that I have received from them. Keep up the good work ASAA.

I am very happy with my decision to be a member of the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers. ASAA has been an outstanding source of knowledge for me. The training material and guidance has been very helpful and has been a great source of information for me to establish my business platform.

I am writing this for the specific purpose of reinforcing the good work of the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers. Their primary mission of training and supporting ASAA members as we go about our work of producing high quality livestock and equipment appraisals is without a doubt more than I ever expected. None of my work would have been possible without the help of ASAA. For anyone wanting to become a Certified Livestock or Equipment Appraiser, I cannot say enough good about ASAA and their appraisal training courses.

Twenty Five years ago I took the Principles of Valuation course from the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers. I just want to thank ASAA for helping me to launch a very successful appraisal career. My certification through ASAA for doing appraisals for livestock, equipment, and horses is the gold standard for appraisers. Over the years I have worked for several different entities. After appraising thousands of cattle, and thousands of pieces of equipment, I still enjoy my work!

The American Society of Agricultural Appraisers has taught me how to do a real professional job doing these appraisals. I really like the fact that I am my own boss. It sure is nice being able to work from home. I can always make time for my kids,

I want to thank the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers for their Principles of Valuation Course. I don’t know how anyone could do an accurate appraisal without your course. The Report Writer Software is an invaluable tool in the process of putting an appraisal together. Thank you again for all that you do in making these invaluable tools and education available to your members. You are truly a blessing.

I established my appraisal business in 1988. I had great success right out of the gate because of my association with the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers. It did not take any time at all for me to become widely respected by banks and other businesses that needed appraisals. I soon learned that being qualified and not just opinionated is the secret ingredient to success as a Certified Appraiser. Thank you ASAA for the help and support that you have given me through the years. My advice to those interested in the appraisal business is go for it; it has great rewards.

A big part of my success in the appraisal business is my affiliation with the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers. You must be a self starter and a little aggressive in order to be successful in any business. The appraisal business is no exception. With ASAA you are given all the tools that you need. No excuse for not doing well. This field is going to continue to grow.

I have received my appraisal training and certification from the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers. They do a great job of educating and getting you on board with the appraisal business.

Making the decision to become a Certified Livestock and Equipment Appraiser was easy for me, deciding to become an ASAA member was as well. I wanted to work with an organization where the President of the association was active within the organization. Jay Proost of the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers is top notch, best of the best in my book. If you are wanting to become a certified appraiser, then join the American Society of Agricultural Appraisers.
