Founded in 1966, the National Association of Real Estate Appraisers (NAREA) is an organization of highly qualified real estate professionals. It is one of the largest professional associations in the America, with members in all 50 states. Many are expert witnesses, review appraisers, educators and published authors.

   NAREA understands that membership is more than certification. The association provides standards, guidelines, regulations, education, training, appraisal leads and recognition in the field of residential and commercial real estate valuation. It also provides representation on local, state and national legislative issues. Members must adhere to the NAREA Code of Ethics and the nationally required Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP)

   Kenneth Andreini has been a member of the association since 1993 and has earned a CREA designation.
