Jefferson Sherman to Become Appraisal Institute President

Dec 19, 2019

The Appraisal Institute has announced Jefferson L. Sherman will begin a one-year term as president beginning on New Year’s Day.

Sherman is principal of Sherman Valuation & Review LLC, in Willoughby Hills, Ohio. He has served nationally on the Appraisal Institute’s board of directors (2000-02) and chaired its finance committee last year, and has also been a presence on several other committees within the organization.

“I’m excited to lead this outstanding organization during such an important time in the valuation profession’s history,” Sherman said. “It’s both an exciting and challenging time to be an appraiser, and the Appraisal Institute looks forward to enhancing its role as the valuation profession’s thought leader.”

The Appraisal Institute also named Rodman Schley as its president-elect for 2020. Schley founded Denver-based Commercial Valuation Consultants Inc. in 2002, which was acquired by national appraisal firm BBG in 2016.
