SCOUTS: Get a good appraiser
In the best interest of everyone involved in the possible sale of the Camp Easton Boy Scout Camp, I strongly suggest the Inland Northwest Council Boy Scouts of America enlist the services of a real estate valuation professional - a qualified competent (Certified General) commercial appraiser.
In the interest of due diligence and asset protection (Camp Easton with its prime waterfront location), it is only good stewardship that the relative values of the properties - both Camp Easton, Rte 97, and The Ridge at Sunup Bay - be objectively determined. In order for this to occur, the appraiser must state competency, intimate knowledge of Lake Coeur d'Alene waterfront properties and the absence of potential conflict of interest per USPAP (National Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice).
I would be happy to recommend at least two potentially qualified commercial appraisers who can perform the opinions of value. (I am not among them, as my focus is strictly residential appraising.) Please feel free to contact me at advent@roadrunner.com.
