Instead of going down, Cook County Assessor Fritz
Kaegi says most Chicago homeowners will see their property taxes go up
when they get their next bill. But he says it's not his fault.
Kaegi says if left to his office, the homeowners would
not see a hike at all. He is blaming the Cook County Board of Review

IAAO, IPTI announce June dates for Mass Appraisal Valuation Symposium
The International Property Tax Institute (IPTI) and IAAO announced that
they will be presenting a joint virtual Mass Appraisal Valuation
Symposium (MAVS 2023) on June 21-22, 2023.
More details will be available shortly, along with an invitation to
present at the MAVS. IPTI and IAAO offered a virtual symposium in June
of 2022, and about 270 people participated.
IAAO members to serve on The Appraisal Foundation boards
Tracy Johnston, CAE, AAS, was reappointed to The Appraisal Foundation
Board of Trustees and will serve as vice chair in 2023. In 2022,
Johnston served as secretary to the Board of Trustees. IAAO member Donna
VanderVries, CAE, AAS, PPS, was reappointed to the Appraiser
Qualifications Board, and IAAO member John Ryan is continuing to serve
his term on the AQB.
TAF updates USPAP Student Manual
The Appraisal Foundation has released an updated version of Part 2 from
the 2022-2023 7-Hour USPAP Update Course Student Manual. This update
pertains to the real property and mass appraisal versions of the course. It replaces pages 9 to 24 of the course manuals.
USPAP has always prohibited performing assignments with bias and has
always required appraisers to follow applicable anti-discrimination
laws. However, TAF was asked by the Appraisal Subcommittee to provide
additional material to enhance the understanding of this critical issue
and to ensure the training contains important elements needed to educate
the appraiser about anti-discrimination and fair housing laws.
The Appraisal Foundation engaged the preeminent fair housing law firm Relman Colfax to assist with this effort.

The EU’s first step to tame Airbnb: Get the data
How
big of a problem is Airbnb for Europe’s cities? That’s what the EU
wants to figure out. Brussels this week unveiled its first set of
measures aimed at regulating how short-term rental platforms like Airbnb
operate in cities. Rather than lay down wide-ranging new rules, the
European Commission’s first step is a narrow one: It wants platforms to
share aggregate data on who uses the platform, where they stay and for
how long. Read more
