Dart Appraisal announced that Nikole Avers, former executive director of the Tennessee Real Estate Appraiser Commission, has joined the company as a review appraiser.
A certified real estate appraiser and Appraisal Qualifications Board-certified USPAP instructor, Avers served as the executive director of 17 regulatory boards at the Department of Commerce and Insurance in Tennessee from 2006-2016.
“Nikole’s experience as both an appraiser and a regulator adds a truly unique layer to our quality control team,” Dart Appraisal President Michael Dresden said in the press release. “Dart is committed to providing quality, compliant appraisal reports to our clients, and Nikole’s broad experience helps to strengthen that commitment.”
Avers’ role will include performing quality control audits of residential appraisal reports, working closely with Dart’s chief appraiser to provide counseling to appraisers and lenders on complex appraisal assignments, while advising on regulatory compliance issues. She also will facilitate USPAP training for all of Dart Appraisal’s operations employees.
