Buzzy Awards 2025: Mentor of the Year

Last fall, we put out a call for nominations for our first inaugural Buzzy Awards. We wanted to recognize outstanding appraisers, firms, and others in the industry from around the country. In this special episode, we’re celebrating the winner of this year’s Buzzy Award for Mentor of the Year! He joins Hal and Jim to reflect on his journey in the appraisal industry, share the qualities that define great leadership, and highlight success stories he's seen along the way. Plus, we dive into UAD 3.6 and the end of traditional appraisal forms. What does this seismic shift mean for appraisal software?
