What was the effective revision cycle of USPAP between 2008 and 2020?

The effective revision cycle of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) between 2008 and 2020 was two years. This means that the standards were reviewed and potentially updated every two years to ensure they remained relevant and effective in addressing the changing needs of the appraisal profession and market conditions.

The two-year cycle allowed for sufficient time for appraisers to adapt to changes and for stakeholder input to be gathered and considered, ensuring that any revisions were well-informed and reflective of the current practices and challenges in the field.

During this period, updates would address various aspects of appraisal standards, including changes in technology, market practices, and regulatory requirements, making it essential for practitioners to stay informed about updates in order to comply with the most current standards. This cycle, therefore, balanced the need for regular updates with the practical realities of implementation in the workforce.
