CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE—
2017–2018 REGULAR SESSION
| Senate Bill | No. 70 |
| Introduced by Senator Bates |
January 09, 2017 |
An act to amend Section 11319 of the Business and Professions Code, relating to real estate.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 70, Bates.
Real estate: Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.
Existing law, the Real Estate Law, provides for the licensure, certification, and regulation of persons who engage in specified real estate appraisal activity by the Chief of the Bureau of Real Estate Appraisers. That law makes the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice the minimum standard of conduct and performance for a licensee in any work or service performed that is addressed by those standards.
This bill would instead provide that until January 1, 2020, a licensee is not required to comply with provisions of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice that provide a limitation on restricted appraisal reports to intended users other than or in addition to the client, if certain requirements are met, including that the consent of the client is obtained in advance.
