Memorial Day reminds us what it means to show up and commit to something larger than yourself, even when it costs you.

The Ohio Chapter remembers and honors all who served and made the ultimate sacrifice. May we carry their example into the work we do every day.

Wishing everyone a safe and reflective Memorial Day.

Ethics CE isn't the most glamorous item on your to-do list, but it might be the most important one.

If you've been putting off Business Practices & Ethics, now's the time take it and do so with the Appraisal Institute Ohio Chapter. Early bird rates are available through June 2, and the course itself is June 9.

This course doesn't just check the box. Mark Smeltzer Sr., MAI, SRA, AI-GRS, AI-RRS, CDEI, MBA walks you through the real situations appraisers face: update requests, adding intended users, report errors that create risk, and how to handle them the right way.

What's one ethics question you've had to look up in the last year? This course probably covers it.

Register today to lock in the early bird rate.

Here's something most of us have run into at least once: you're in an assignment, and the term "market value" means something completely different to the attorney or accountant sitting across the table.

Not because anyone is wrong. Because the same words carry different meanings depending on who's using them — and in what context.

That's exactly what Fair Value, Market Value, Fair Market Value is built around. Instructor Robert Moorman digs into the real-world situations where appraisers disagree — property tax assessments, condemnation actions, financial reports — and walks through how to think clearly and report accurately when the definitions alone aren't enough.

Heavy on examples. Heavy on case studies. The kind of course that changes how you approach an assignment the next morning.

What does it look like when women lead the way in reshaping how land is owned, transferred, and stewarded for generations to come?

Join the Ohio Chapter of the Appraisal Institute for the third installment of the Region V WIN Speaker Series, Women Leading the Way: Revolutionary New Model for Land Transition, a virtual conversation at the intersection of land, legacy, community, and women in leadership.

🌾 Kristina Villa will share the origin story of The Farmers Land Trust and the vision behind the Farmland Commons model — a bold new approach to farmland ownership that puts long-term stewardship, farmer access, and community benefit ahead of extraction and speculation.

🏡 Annie Warmke brings a lifetime of bold leadership to the table. From founding Blue Rock Station Sustainable Living Center and Farm in southeastern Ohio to helping develop the Blue Rock Farmland Commons, Annie will share hard-won wisdom and practical inspiration for women ready to step into their strength, find their voice, and lead others toward a better future.

Together, this session offers both a big-picture look at systemic change in farmland access and a grounded, real-world example of how one farm is making that transition today.
This are presentations you do not want to miss!

She went WHERE? She did WHAT? With WHO?!

That's not hyperbole — that's part of the title of the next Region V WIN Speaker Series event, That Female Appraiser Went Where and Did What With Who?! Hosted by the Ohio Chapter of the Appraisal Institute. And trust us, it delivers.

This virtual conversation brings together two remarkable women at the intersection of land, legacy, and leadership:

🌾 Kristina Villa — sharing the vision behind The Farmers Land Trust and the Farmland Commons model, a bold new approach to farmland ownership focused on long-term stewardship and community benefit.

🏡 Annie Warmke — reflecting on her journey building Blue Rock Station in Philo, Ohio and the personal decision to transition her land into the Blue Rock Farmland Commons.

What does it mean to steward land beyond individual ownership? How do innovative models ensure farms stay in farmers' hands for generations? These two are going to get into all of it.

If you've ever thought about land, legacy, and what we leave behind — this one is for you.
