Congratulations to John Bryant for his nomination to the Turknett Leadership Character Awards.  This year a new category, education, was added.  2008 will be the group's 5th Annual Awards. John Bryant s revered as an appraisal instructor and advocate in Georgia and is assisted in his daily work by his lovely wife, Joella.

In addition to excellent classroom instruction, John also provides a forum for appraisers from Georgia and other states (including regular visitors from Oregon and Florida) to gather and discuss real estate appraisal industry issues.  For the past two years, John has also hosted a picnic for appraisers in Georgia to come to together to network and celebrate the survival of another year.

The awards luncheon will be held Feb. 4, 2008 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, Atlanta, Georgia.

John has played a crucial part in my personal development as a real estate appraiser and I would like to take this opportunity to say "Thank You"!
