Appraisal Guidelines - Volume 1

April 1998

As the real estate broker for the federal government, Public Works and Government Services Canada is responsible for the development and management of appraisal standards. The guidelines ensure uniformity of format and content in the delivery of appraisal services to Government of Canada departments, agencies and Crown Corporations. Volume 1 of the Appraisal Guidelines deals with the appraisal products themselves, the industry standards, the report formats, and special appraisal situations and problems often faced by the PWGSC appraiser.
