SUMMARY:Appraising Residential Solar PV Systems
DESCRIPTION:Valuing the Sun – Appraising Residential Solar PV Systems\n\nThrough this hands-on workshop you will gain valuation tools that can be integrated into real world practice.  \nThe number of solar PV (photovoltaic) system installations has increased substantially while the costs have decreased dramatically. As solar PV becomes more common in the residential housing market\, so does the need for competent appraisers that are equipped to accurately appraise these unique types of properties. \nJoin our expert instructor\, Taylor Watkins\, as he teaches you how to apply adjustment techniques to a residential solar PV case study using three approaches to value. Through this hands-on workshop you will gain valuation tools that can be integrated into real-world practice. \nLearning Objectives\nUnderstand solar PV language\nUnderstand and apply net present value calculations to solar PV installations.\nRecongnize the impact of incentives and credits for solar and how they relate to the cost approach.\n​\nCourse Fee\n$35 | Earth Advantage Professionals (EA Broker\, SHP\, AGA or EA Builder)\n$45 | General Admission \nInstructor\nTaylor Watkins has been a certified residential appraiser in the Portland and Southwest Washington region for over 20 years. He owns one of Portland’s first net-zero homes\, the “Rose House.” Taylor frequently serves as a consultant and expert around the country on green home valuation issues\, including a study he conducted for Energy Trust of Oregon on the impact of photovoltaic panels on a home’s appraised value. He created and instructs the Appraising Green Homes courses that comprise EA’s Accredited Green Appraiser designation\, as well as teaches the Earth Advantage Broker (formerly S.T.A.R. – Sustainability Training for Accredited Real Estate Professionals) course in Oregon\, Washington\, Alabama\, and Virginia. \n\n\nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Full Moon Hike
DESCRIPTION:The full moon provides an excellent opportunity to explore the night under the natural light of the moon! Come out to enjoy the beauty of the lake and meadow bathed in the moon’s reflected light. Keep eyes and ears active\, and maybe you will spot some of the wildlife that is awake when we are normally inside for the night. \nThis walk will be led by a knowledgable Nature Center Naturalist\, and will take participants over potentially uneven ground on and around Nature Center grounds. Bring warm clothes\, comfortable walking shoes\, a flashlight if available (red light is best to keep your eyes adjusted to the dark!)\, and a sense of adventure! \nMeet at the Nature Center 15 minutes early\, event runs from 8pm – 9pm. \nEvent fee: $6 adults & $4 kids. \nREGISTRATION IS REQUIRED! Call to reserve your spot at 541-593-4394.
