tools are cool

Reinvestigation and renewal is most always good.  I have been much more focused on real estate brokerage over the past nine years and had drifted away from using the Institute and the IR/WA tools and resources.

The good news . . . while I was away, they were BUSY!


Remember the world before GIS, iPhones, and iPads?  Applications were what we filled out for lenders from whom we wanted assignments.  We looked through Deed Books page by page for data.  All that has changed.  Did you know that the Appraisal Institute even has a podcast - with some great topics and speakers?



The IR/WA is leveraging social media to connect with all right of way professional disciplines - a changing industry for certain.  If you worked for Georgia DOT back then, you will remember the brief push for metric plans and calculating awards in hectares.


Like slipping into a pair of the most current version of your favorite old Cole Hahn driving mocs, it is exciting and comfortably familiar at the same time.
