| Description: |
Real Estate Appraisers give opinions of value (appraisals) for improved or unimproved real property for purchase, sale, investment, mortgage or loan purposes, and for legal processes. There are three categories of appraisers in Oregon; state licensed appraiser, state certified residential appraiser, and state certified general appraiser.
If the administrator of the Appraiser Certification and Licensure Board determines that the standards, qualifications and examinations for licensing, certifying or registration of real estate appraisers of another state are substantially similar to the standards, qualifications and examinations required in Oregon, the administrator with approval of the Appraiser Certification and Licensure Board may enter into a reciprocal agreement with such other state to issue without examination licenses or certificates upon proof of licensing or certification in such other state and upon payment of appropriate fees. Here is the link to the list of Reciprocal Contracts States. |
