B. No
C. USPAP does not address signatures

Answer 1

According to USPAP, an appraiser cannot affix the signature of another appraiser to a report.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice), an appraiser is not permitted to affix the signature of another appraiser to a report. USPAP requires that appraisers personally sign their reports to ensure accountability and accuracy.

By signing their reports, appraisers are declaring that the work performed, conclusions reached, and opinions expressed in the report are their own.

So, the correct answer is B. No, USPAP does not permit an appraiser to affix the signature of another appraiser to a report.
