An MAI appraisal, commonly misspelled as MIA Appraisal is not a type of appraisal but an appraisal performed by an MAI appraiser.
An MAI is an appraiser that possesses the MAI designation, which is depicted following the appraiser's name, such as Carlos Miranda, MAI, SRA.
The MAI stands for Member of the Appraisal Institute, which is the highest achievement that is available to an appraiser. The requirements to become an MAI essentially double the requirements set forth for a certified general appraiser.
Bear in mind that an MAI Appraiser is also a Certified General Appraiser.
Virtually all large real estate transactions require an MAI Appraisal and the designation is recognized anywhere in the world.
The question is do you need an MAI Appraisal? MAI's do all levels of appraisal work, even simple assignments. Since the assignments are less complex, the fee is also less and is not necessarily higher than a Certified General Appraiser that is not an MAI. Therefore, if you need an appraisal of any level, why would you not ask for the best. So please call us for your MAI Appraisal, our numbers are 787-399-1598, 787-890-5556 or email: ccimpr@gmail.com.

Thanks
