Virtual Classroom: ChatGPT for RE Appraisers: Beginner’s Edition

Never used AI before? Perfect. Most appraisers are either avoiding ChatGPT entirely or just using it to clean up emails. This beginner-friendly course starts with the absolute basics and builds your confidence step-by-step.  Oh, and NO tech background required!

We Start Simple:

• What is ChatGPT and how does it actually work?
• Setting up your account and writing your first prompt
• Basic techniques for improving narratives and correspondence

Then We Go Further:

• Transform property photos into detailed descriptions using vision tools
• Create professional market area analyses and reconciliation commentary
• Build your own Custom GPT—a personalized AI assistant designed specifically for your appraisal needs
• Organize complex projects with advanced workflow systems

Real Appraiser Benefits: Stop staring at blank pages. Generate property descriptions while still on-site using your phone. Turn bullet-point notes into polished narratives. Create consistent, professional communication that impresses clients.

USPAP Compliant: Clear guidance on ethical AI use, privacy protection, and how AI coincides with AO-37.

The class is designed to give you the confidence to start using AI professionally and ethically.  If you’re curious about AI but don’t know where to start, this is your course.  Join fellow appraisers who are working smarter while maintaining the highest professional standards.
