A. An original certification as a state certified general or a

state certified residential or state licensed appraiser shall not be

issued to any person who does not possess the equivalent of the

minimum requirements of experience promulgated by the Appraiser

Qualifications Board of the Appraisal Foundation in real property

appraisal supported by adequate written reports or file memoranda.

Provided, no experience shall be required for a trainee appraiser.

Provided, any state licensed appraiser who becomes state licensed

prior to July 1, 2001, shall not be required to attain the minimum

requirements of experience promulgated by the Appraiser

Qualifications Board to maintain certification as a state licensed

appraiser.

B. Each applicant for certification as a state certified

general or a state certified residential or state licensed appraiser

shall furnish under oath a detailed listing of the real estate

appraisal reports or file memoranda for each year for which

experience is claimed by the applicant. Upon request, the applicant

shall make available to the Real Estate Appraiser Board for

examination, a sample of appraisal reports which the applicant has

prepared in the course of that applicant's appraisal practice.

C. Each applicant for a certification upgrade to a state

certified general or a state certified residential or state licensed

in writing by the Board as to whether or not the application for

certification upgrade is approved, and if denied, the notification

shall state recommendations for improving qualifications and

experience and any criteria for reapplication.
