OAKLAND, CA, UNITED STATES, July 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Garrett Schwartz, FASA, CEA, principal of Sencer Appraisal Associates, Inc., has been named a Fellow of the American Society of Appraisers and awarded the FASA designation. Membership in the ASA College of Fellows is the highest honor the Society grants its members. It recognizes appraisers who have advanced professional standards and demonstrated sustained leadership within ASA and the valuation profession. Schwartz will be inducted at the 2026 ASA International Conference in Fort Worth, Texas, in October. Schwartz leads equipment appraisal assignments for business owners, attorneys, lenders, accountants, insurers, and other clients requiring independent opinions of value.
The American Society of Appraisers has conferred the grade of Fellow since 1954. Each year, members are nominated by their peers, reviewed by the College of Fellows, and approved by the ASA Board of Governors. Nominees are judged on years of leadership, ethical conduct, professional impact, and mentorship within the Society and the profession. Fellows are selected from among the Society’s Accredited Senior Appraisers, and only a small group of members holds the FASA designation.
Schwartz leads the firm’s Oakland office and has served the valuation profession in senior leadership roles within ASA governance, including as International President and Chair of its Board of Governors. He also was editor of ASA’s textbook, "Valuing Machinery and Equipment: The Fundamentals of Appraising Machinery and Technical Assets" (Fourth Edition, 2020). As principal of Sencer Appraisal Associates, he leads a firm that has provided independent machinery and equipment appraisals since 1955.
“It is a great honor to be recognized by my peers and welcomed into the College of Fellows,” said Schwartz. “The American Society of Appraisers has shaped my work and my standards for many years. I am grateful for the recognition, and I look forward to continuing to serve the valuation profession and the clients who rely on our equipment appraisals.”
“This recognition reflects the standard Garrett sets every day,” said Matt Edelstein, who leads the firm’s Philadelphia office. “The FASA designation recognizes the rigor and service that colleagues and clients see in his work every day.”
