REAL ESTATE APPRAISER
License Description A real estate appraiser is a person engaged in the practice of real estate appraisal. Real estate appraisal means providing an analysis, opinion or conclusion relating to the nature, quality, value or utility of specified interests in or aspects of real estate. Wisconsin grants three types of credentials, licensed appraiser, certified residential appraiser, and certified general appraiser. Federal mandate requires that after January 1, 1993, all appraisers must be licensed or certified by a state licensing agency in order to conduct appraisals which involve "federally related transactions." However, appraisers are not required to be licensed or certified in Wisconsin in order to perform "non-federally related transactions."
