AR128 Removing Multidisciplinary Blind Spots

  • Registration Closed

Webinar Description

Wednesday, October 26, 2022
1:00pm - 3:00pm Eastern US


The purpose of this presentation is to shed light on blind spots that are generated when the valuation process requires significant knowledge of more than one discipline. Such blind spots are the inevitable consequence of specialization. Appraisers acquire very deep training and experience in one discipline, where they eventually know the right questions to ask, operating confidently and effectively; in that case, blind spots become rare. But all that takes considerable time and effort. What happens when the valuation occurs at the intersection of two or more disciplines? The benefits of deep training and experience in that joint space do not automatically exist, and the potential for unseen error is great.

This webinar begins with an overview of the kinds of fundamental differences that make interdisciplinary understanding a challenge, using examples from real property and business valuation combinations. It then highlights circumstances, tools and processes that support practical solutions. Finally, a case study details the process for separating the real property and other assets that comprise a going concern. This case study was taken from an actual eminent domain proceeding that determined lost rent attributable to short-term interruption of an asset-heavy business.

Webinar Audience

Business valuers, real property and other asset appraisers whose work sometimes involves other disciplines.
