EXECUTIVE CORNER<\/p>\n
A CONVERSATION
\nWITH NEWLY-ELECTED <\/p>\n
AIC PRESIDENT
\nDAN BREWER, AACI, P.APP<\/p>\n
You are a senior appraiser and
\nconsultant for Appraisers Canada
\nInc., with offices in Richmond
\nHill and Barrie, ON. Can you
\ntell us about the company and
\nthe business it conducts?
\nWhat are your specific areas of
\npractice and responsibilities?
\nDB: We are a multi-discipline
\norganization providing real estate
\nvaluation and consulting services that
\ninclude machinery and equipment,
\nreserve fund studies, replacement costing,
\nforensic investigation, litigation support,
\nexpropriation, stigma and contamination.
\nIt is a family operation with three AACIs,
\none CRA and three support staff. I am
\ninvolved in all aspects of the business,
\nwhich I feel gives me a unique perspective
\non many aspects of this profession.<\/p>\n
You have more than 38 years
\nexperience practicing property
\nvaluation. Can you elaborate
\non the career path that led
\nto your current position?
\nDB: In 1978, I started in real estate as a
\nsalesperson. The broker who mentored
\nme also carried out appraisal work.
\nHe\u00a0encouraged me to become involved <\/p>\n
\u201cWE ARE HERE ON BEHALF OF OUR
\nMEMBERS AND OPERATE ON THE BASIC <\/p>\n
PHILOSOPHY THAT \u2018MEMBERS MATTER.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
in property valuation and to work
\ntowards my CRA accreditation, which I
\nachieved in 1987. For the next 20 years,
\nI remained a CRA and went about
\nestablishing my career. I had planned to
\nearn my AACI designation sooner than
\nI did, however, I guess you could say
\nthat life, with all of its ups and downs,
\ngot in the way. The fact that most of
\nthe work I was doing went beyond the
\nscope of the CRA and required an AACI
\nco-signature resulted in me taking that
\nnext step to become an AACI in 2006.
\nEarning that designation gave me the
\nopportunity to expand my expertise
\nand continue to be a leader in this
\ngreat industry.<\/p>\n
In addition to my Appraisal Institute
\nof Canada (AIC) designations, I am
\nalso a licensed real estate and mortgage
\nbroker, and hold the designations
\nof a CRP (Certified Reserve Fund
\nPlanner) with the Real Estate Institute
\nof Canada, a CPPA (Canadian
\nPersonal Property Appraiser) and a
\nPLE (Professional Land Economist).
\nI\u00a0believe that the additional knowledge
\nand expertise from these other facets of
\nthe real estate business makes me more
\nof a well-rounded professional. <\/p>\n
\u201cWHEN YOU SEE
\nTHINGS THAT NEED <\/p>\n
TO BE IMPROVED AND
\nCHANGED, YOU EITHER GET
\nINVOLVED OR DO NOTHING. <\/p>\n
FOR ME, DOING NOTHING
\nWAS NOT AN OPTION.\u201d<\/p>\n

EXECUTIVE CORNER<\/p>\n
You obviously made a decision
\nat some point in your career to
\nbecome engaged in volunteer
\nactivities. Why did you make that
\nchoice and in what capacities have
\nyou volunteered over the years?
\nDB: Volunteering has been in my DNA.
\nAs an adult and parent, I have been a coach
\nand trainer of various hockey and fastball
\nteams over the years. While my kids were
\ngrowing up, it was a good way to be there
\nfor them. I then became involved with
\nthe professional organization that has
\nprovided me with a great career and amazing
\nopportunities \u2013 the AIC. In addition to
\nbeing the 2016-2017 National President,
\nsome of my other volunteer service has
\nbeen as Chair of the Professional Practice
\nCommittee and the National Admissions
\nand Accreditation Committee, Chair of
\nthe AIC Toronto Chapter, Director of
\nthe Ontario Association AIC (Region 3 \u2013
\nToronto), Investigator with the Investigating
\nCommittee, Examiner with the Board of
\nExaminers, National Peer Reviewer, and
\nGovernment Relations (Ontario).<\/p>\n
How would you sum up your
\nexperiences as a volunteer
\nand what it has meant to you
\npersonally and professionally?
\nDB: To be a volunteer means engagement.
\nIt is about giving back. When you see
\nthings that need to be improved and
\nchanged, you either get involved or do
\nnothing. For\u00a0me, doing nothing was not
\nan option. In addition to affecting change,
\nbeing involved as I have has also enabled me
\nto meet colleagues and make friends all over
\nthis great country.<\/p>\n
You have attended 24 consecutive AIC
\nnational conferences. Why have you
\nfelt this was important and how do
\nyou feel it has impacted your career?
\nDB: As a committed volunteer, attending
\nconferences gave me an opportunity to be
\non top of the issues and the profession as a
\nwhole. It also allowed me to experience and
\nmeet other professionals from coast to coast.
\nIt truly has been an enjoyable experience.<\/p>\n
You are now the AIC President and
\nserve on the Executive Committee
\nas well as the Professional
\nPractice Committee. What are
\nyour responsibilities in these
\nareas and what challenges do
\nyou foresee in the year ahead?
\nDB: My role as president is to lead,
\nfacilitate and empower others to be
\ninvolved and make decisions. My job is
\nmade easier by the fact that we have a very
\ncollaborative Board of Directors and that
\nextends to the work of our staff, led by
\nour CEO. We know that each one of us
\nis here to represent the national body and
\nto make a difference for the profession.
\nWe are here on behalf of our members
\nand operate on the basic philosophy that
\n\u2018members matter.\u2019<\/p>\n
As for the challenges that we face in
\nthe year ahead, for me personally it will
\nbe to enjoy the year as it unfolds and
\nto manage my time effectively in order
\nto benefit the AIC and its members.
\nFor\u00a0the AIC, it will be to continue
\nlooking ahead, without ever forgetting
\nour past. If we forget who we are and
\nwhere we have been, we will, in fact,
\nhave no future. For appraisers in general,
\nthe challenge will be for us to recognize
\nthe value we bring to the market and
\nour clients. As appraisers, we need to
\nrealize that we are part of the financial
\nstability at every level of Canadian
\nsociety, providing common sense for a
\nvery complex industry that many do not
\nunderstand. We also need to be the voice
\nand advocate on all matters that relate
\nto the professional services we provide
\nfor those issues that affect not only AIC
\nmembers, but also the real estate and
\nlending industry in general, since it
\naffects all Canadians. <\/p>\n
The AIC has been implementing
\nits ever-evolving Strategic
\nPlan for the past several
\nyears. What are the institute\u2019s
\npriorities in the year ahead
\nrelative to the Strategic Plan
\nthat has been mapped out?
\nDB: Our goal will be to ensure
\nthat the Strategic Plan is a living,
\nbreathing document that enables us
\nto understand the issues that affect
\nour members and to deal with them
\naccordingly. I will work to ensure that
\nboth fee and non-fee members feel
\nengaged, proud and knowledgeable
\nthat they are held accountable to
\nour world class Canadian Uniform
\nStandards of Professional Appraisal
\nPractice (CUSPAP). Adding additional
\nstandards to make this happen
\nis part of the process. It is about
\ndiversification and giving our members
\nthe tools to be successful. <\/p>\n
What do you feel have been
\nthe Institute\u2019s most recent
\naccomplishments?
\nDB: The past six years, in particular,
\nhave been a truly amazing story.
\nSome of the highlights have
\nbeen the Board and its leaders
\nsigning multiple memorandums of
\nunderstanding (MOUs) with like-
\nminded organizations; implementing
\na French language education program;
\nenhancing our education program
\nand our standards; and continuing
\nto refine our already world class
\nprofessional liability insurance
\nprogram that serves our members.
\nThe future is bright indeed and I look
\nforward to continuing to see that our
\nship is heading in the right direction.<\/p>\n
\u201cAS APPRAISERS, WE NEED TO REALIZE THAT
\nWE ARE PART OF THE FINANCIAL STABILITY AT <\/p>\n
EVERY LEVEL OF CANADIAN SOCIETY,
\nPROVIDING COMMON SENSE FOR A VERY COMPLEX <\/p>\n
INDUSTRY THAT MANY DO NOT UNDERSTAND.\u201d <\/p>\n

EXECUTIVE CORNER<\/p>\n
A year from now, when you reflect
\nback on your term as president,
\nwhat do you hope will have been
\nthe Institute\u2019s most significant
\naccomplishment in that time period?
\nDB: Ensuring the quality and profession-
\nalism of our members\u2019 appraisal services
\nis critical to the advancement of the pro-
\nfession and our Institute. To maintain
\nour strong reputation, the AIC needs to
\ncontinue to raise the bar to enhance our
\nprofessional practice systems and standards. <\/p>\n
After my one-year term, I would
\nlike to see AIC members embracing the
\nunique and important role they play in
\nthe real estate industry as independent
\nand unbiased professionals. I would like
\nto know that all of our members are
\nconstantly striving to be the best and
\nto be accountable for delivering quality
\nreal estate consulting and appraisal
\nservices that leave their clients with
\nno doubt that we are the real estate
\nprofessionals of choice in Canada. <\/p>\n
What advice would you give
\nto new members entering
\nthe profession and to existing
\nmembers going forward?
\nDB: You need to get involved. Start at the
\ngrass roots of our organization\u2026 at the
\nchapter, provincial, or committee levels.
\nNever think this is an easy or simple ride.
