UCAP’s vision includes a unique, specialized, multifaceted training program, “Urban Appraisal Development Initiative”, that offers alternative real-world solutions to some of the barriers of entry in the real estate appraisal and right-of-way industries.
Partnership
UCAP will foster diversity, equity and inclusion as well as partnerships with other organizations to provide access to resources and contracting opportunities, which will provide those small businesses with potential for growth. Inequality isn’t just a social issue; it’s also a economics issue. Companies such as (Banks, Appraisal Management Companies and others) today must act to create a world that respects everyone’s dignity and makes equal opportunities available to all.
Empowerment
UCAP’s on-going and continual efforts will make it one unlike any other in this business. Our pre-licensing and continuing education course will empower our students to become some of the best trained in the real estate appraisal industry. We will also help some of our students with job placement and economic opportunities, which will allow those students to obtain the necessary hours needed to set for their state exam.
What makes us different? We provide skills such as;
- Seminars
- Webinars
- Workshops
- Volunteer Events
- Advanced Appraisal Courses
- Professional Development Skills
- Advanced Appraisal Training Methods
How to research, analyze, and collect data for accurate valuations of residential real estate appraisal reports and automatic valuation modules
- E-learning tools surrounding common appraisal issues and problems.
- And other programs that will allow those students to become successful real estate appraisal professionals.
Transformation
UCAP will impact change on a national level through its collaborations with larger nonprofit organizations on policies, in the banking and appraisal industry. And help craft guidelines and regulations reducing issues such as Appraisal Bias and helping close the Appraisal Gap for minority appraisers.

Remove Barriers of Entry
ButtonBarriers of entry is an economic and business term describing factors that can prevent or impede newcomers in a market or industry sector and limit competition. These can include finding a supervisory appraiser, low starting pays, and other obstacles. That prevents minorities and women from entering the field and creating generational wealth for themselves and their families. We have found some solutions to this issue.
