DEVELOPMENT OF REAL ESTATE CONSULTING PRACTICE In the U.S, the real estate consulting practice, may have been formally recognized as a distinct real estate practice by the organization of a society of counselors in l953 by a group of Realtors, which affiliated itself with the National Association Realtors in l954. This society was founded for the purpose of meeting the public need for competent, disinterested, and In recognizing its obligations to the public, this society of counselors invited into its membership only Realtors who have demonstrated their integrity and are qualified by experience, training, and knowledge to develop and express sound judgment on diversified problems in real estate business.

Market value is the value in the marketplace. Investment value is the specific value of goods or services to a particular investor or class of investors based on individual investment
