Minnesota Drainage Viewers Association
The Minnesota Viewers Association was established as an educational organization in 1981. The association has, since it's establishment, worked to provide an unbiased approach to the determination of benefits and damages as set forth in the Minnesota States 103E. It has strived to establish a professional approach to meet the needs and requirements for the viewing process to be accepted and defendable given the limited guidance stated within the statue. Every effort is being made in the education of the association members to meet and follow the applicable accepted appraisal practices listed within the Uniform Practices of Professional Appraisal Practices.
The Minnesota Viewers Association holds training seminars quarterly. Training seminar information is available on the toolbar to the left. Training dates will be posted a few weeks prior to the seminar. Viewers must attend a minimum of two seminars a year in order to maintain Association Accreditation.
