"In a rapidly changing industry, Dennis Webb believes the future of appraisal is not about being replaced by machines, but about being empowered by them."

In this episode of “Appraisers on Purpose,” Dennis Webb, a veteran in both business and real estate valuation, shares his optimistic view on the future of appraising.

While many fear that automation is threatening the profession, Dennis argues that machines can actually make appraisers more efficient and trusted.

For Dennis, the key to thriving in the evolving landscape is transparency and specialization.

He encourages appraisers to embrace emerging technologies while maintaining a clear, honest approach in their reports—something machines simply can’t replicate.

By doing so, appraisers can restore public trust and demonstrate the value of human expertise in an increasingly data-driven world.

Dennis also highlights the growing opportunities in niche areas, such as fractional interest valuation, and discusses how professionals can capitalize on these underexplored fields to build a lasting career.

Tune in to this insightful episode to hear how Dennis Webb sees a hopeful and empowered future for the appraisal profession.
