Reasons to use AACI & CRA Designated Appraisers


There are many reasons why an appraisal on real property would be needed. The following are some:
  • purchase of a property
  • refinancing
  • estate settlements and planning
  • divorce settlements
  • foreclosures
  • relocations
  • new construction, etc.

Appraisers with the designations AACI (Accredited Appaiser Canadian Institute) and CRA (Canadian Residential Appraiser) adhere to a strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Practice. When you hire an appraiser with these designations you are hiring one with:
  • An independent, objective valuation
  • Solid professional training
  • Proven valuation experience
  • Career commitment
  • Ongoing professional development
  • Self-regulation
  • An ongoing relationship with lenders
  • Public interest in mind
  • Universal acceptability &
  • A history of commitment

McInnes & Company Appraisals Ltd. is a member of the Appraisal Institute of Canada and has three appraisers with the CRA designation. We are also affiliated with Accord Appraisals Company for the AACI certification. For more information, see our profile.
