What it does

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

This bill limits the time a person has to start a lawsuit for damages against a licensed or certified real estate appraiser to five years from the date the real estate appraiser submits the appraisal report to the client for whom real estate appraisal services are performed, unless a shorter limitations period applies. The limitation period created in the bill does not apply to a real estate appraiser who commits fraud or concealment in the performance of real estate appraisal services.

Currently, there is no statute of limitations specifically addressed to real estate appraisal services.
