Real Property Appraisers: Join ASA in Washington, D.C. for a High-Impact Advocacy Opportunity

Represent ASA and the Real Property Appraisal Profession on Capitol Hill

ASA is inviting three Real Property members to join ASA President Adrian Gonzalez and Director of Government Relations Aiden O’Brien for a day of strategic meetings with key congressional offices in Washington, D.C.

This is not your typical fly-in. It’s an exclusive, high-impact event designed to showcase ASA’s leadership in advocacy and elevate the voice of independent appraisers at the national level. You’ll help inform federal policy conversations, build relationships with lawmakers, and demonstrate the value and professionalism ASA brings to the appraisal field.

Why It Matters: As Congress considers legislation and oversight affecting the appraisal profession—from waivers and AMCs to federal standards—ASA is stepping up to ensure appraisers are heard. This is your chance to be part of that effort.

ASA is partnering with the Appraisal Institute and other appraisal organizations on this fly in. You can find more details on the event here. 

What to Expect:

• One full day of meetings with congressional offices (travel in the day before)
• Preparation and support from ASA’s government relations team
• A unique opportunity to engage directly with policymakers and represent the appraisal community

This is a first of its kind program for 2025 with plans to expand next year. We’re looking for three ASA-designated RP members interested in public policy, advocacy, and protecting the future of the profession.
