Property Rights: Why Haven't I Heard This Before?

Are "rights appraised" only fee simple, or is there more to this? Properties have evolved over the years and it is rare to find a property that doesn't have restrictions on the title ranging from life estates, utility and access easements, cell tower sites, deed restrictions, mineral rights and more - some of these encumbrances may or may not have an impact on value; however, to report "fee simple" is misstating the facts and could create an issue or liability to the appraiser. Come and learn more about why you haven't heard this before and what your approach should be.
