Appraisal Modernization Unfiltered with Joan Trice, Tony Pistilli and Gynell Vestal

Webinar Summary: Straight Talk on the Future of Valuation (Joan Trice) In this candid conversation, Joan Trice said the quiet part out loud—directly addressing what many in valuation avoid: the profession is at an inflection point, and the biggest threats aren’t “technology” or “change,” but denial, misaligned incentives, and a fee/turn-time model that doesn’t match today’s risk environment. The discussion moved beyond surface-level modernization talk and into the real operational and economic forces reshaping residential valuation—especially UAD 3.6, lender risk concerns, workforce capacity, and the sustainability of appraisal fees.
