Real Estate Economics, 1978, vol. 6, issue 2, 186-203

Abstract: This article discusses the notion of gatekeeper, or opinion leader, appraisers. Because these appraisers are instrumental in disseminating information to other appraisers they are very influential in shaping appraisal practices. A sample of 763 appraisers is used to identify these gatekeepers and to examine their appraisal practices relative to other appraisers. Differences are noted between opinion leaders and non‐opinion leaders in the importance attached to and in the use of energy conservation components of real property in appraisals.
