Consensus Rule Making Determination
This rule is being proposed as a consensus rule making. The New York State Board of Real Estate Appraisal does not expect that any person is likely to object to its adoption because the proposed rule merely implements a nondiscretionary statutory direction, i.e., the adoption of these appraisal standards is mandated by § 160(d)(1)(d) of the Executive Law.
Section 160-d(1)(d) of the Executive Law provides, in part, that the New York State Board of Real Estate Appraisal shall adopt standards for the development and communication of real estate appraisals; provided, however, that those standards must, at minimum, conform to the uniform standards of professional appraisal promulgated by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation.
Acting pursuant to Title IX of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 (12 U.S.C.A. §§ 3310-3351), the Appraisal Standards Board has adopted and, from time to time, amended the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, which set forth national standards for developing an appraisal and for reporting its results. This proposal will adopt the 2010-2011 edition of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice relating to real estate appraisals. Since § 160-d(1)(d) directs that the standards adopted by the State Board of Real Estate Appraisal conform, at a minimum, to the standards promulgated by the Appraisal Standards Board, the State Board does not expect that any person is likely to object to the adoption of the 2010-2011 edition of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. The State Board has previously adopted the 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008-2009 editions of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.
Job Impact Statement
Licensed and certified real estate appraisers are currently subject to the 2008-2009 edition of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, which has been revised by the 2010-2011 edition. Accordingly, the New York State Board of Real Estate Appraisal does not believe that adoption of the 2010-2011 edition of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice will have any substantial adverse impact on jobs and employment opportunities.
