ABOUT US
 
The Mission of ANA is to:
  • Assure the public that ANA members are among the most highly informed and
    qualified appraisers of personal property.
  • Establish requirements for and provide educational programs to its members.
  • Develop public awareness of the profession of personal property appraising and the service it provides to the public

The History of ANA
Appraisers National Association was founded in 1982 by David Long, President of the College for Appraisers.  The objective was to provide graduates of the College with an association that would ensure continued emphasis on the principles and ethics of personal property appraising, and offer opportunities for further education. In 1986, the Association was formally established with a Board of Directors charged with providing for the continuing education of its membership, the development of professional fellowship, the oversight and development of appraisal standards, and the ongoing exchange of information among its professional and associate members. The association was incorporated under the name of Research and Appraisal Associates, dba Appraisers National Association (ANA), in 1996, and granted non-profit status by both State and Federal Governments in 1997. Today, ANA continues to foster the professional development of its membership, expand the standards and requirements of its practicing members, and provide the public and the membership with a resource for communication, education, and service.
