Dear Philadelphia ASA Chapter Members, 

We hope this message finds you well and write to provide you with an update of planned activities for the upcoming months. Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, we will be conducting chapter meetings and seminars virtually through at least the end of November 2020. 

Dates and details for upcoming events are noted following and also on the Philadelphia ASA Chapter website and you can register for events here. 

Business Valuation Seminar – Thursday, September 10, 2020  

Thanks to the hard work of Frank Merenda and the support team at SOBEL-EAC Valuations LLC, the annual BV Seminar will be on September 10, 2020. The seminar offers a variety of fantastic speakers and topics of interest to many appraisers and service professionals. You can get last minute early bird discounts until September 1, 2020 but even the full price is reasonable. 

September General Meeting – Wednesday, September 16, 2020 @ 6:30pm

A mix of appraising and local history – Hosted Virtually on Zoom and Free

David Rowland is the President of  Second Federal Savings and Loan Association and also the President of the Old York Road Historical Society.

David will speak to us about what he looks for in appraisals as President of Second Federal Savings and Loan Association and will share stories about Old York Road as President of its Historical Society.

Second Federal Savings and Loan Association of Philadelphia has been offering superior service since 1924. They are located at 1727 Chestnut Street in Philadelphia, PA.

The mission of the Old York Road Historical Society is to preserve and promote the history and folklore of the communities along and adjacent to the Old York Road from Philadelphia to New Hope with special focus on those communities in eastern Montgomery County. Register here.

September Meeting Agenda

We note that we will start the Zoom sign-in at 6:30pm. Our guest speaker will start at 6:35pm. 

Following the presentation by our guest speaker, we will have our Philadelphia ASA Board meeting. 

We have allocated roughly 45-60 minutes for the special guest presentation and Q&A and 30 minutes for our board meeting. Board meetings are open to all ASA members and candidates and are a good way to learn about chapter activities and build relationships. Register here to receive a Zoom invite to our September meeting.

Other Upcoming Activities

Details for our November General Meeting, when we will hear about the regional advocacy work of 5th Square, and other upcoming seminars are on the Philadelphia ASA website. One seminar that may be of interest is A Team Approach to Purchase Price Allocation and Cost Segregation. 

We will keep you updated on a USPAP update or real property classes  that may occur in December as well as plans for 2021.
