New Jersey Is An Equal Opportunity Employer • Printed on Recycled Paper and Recyclable
Notice to Supervising Appraisers and Trainee Appraisers
Beginning on January 1, 2008, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 13:40A-4.6, licensed real estate
appraisers will no longer be approved to serve as supervising appraisers. Thus only State
Certified Residential or State Certified General real estate appraisers will be accepted as
supervising appraisers for the purposes of acquiring a trainee permit.
Additionally, beginning immediately, a supervising appraiser will not be permitted to
supervise more than three trainees at one time. Thus, any individual applying for a trainee
permit, and seeking to be supervised by an appraiser who is already supervising three
trainees will not be eligible to be granted a trainee permit.
(The requirement under N.J.A.C. 13:40A-4.6(f) 4 that supervising appraisers immediately
notify the Board in writing when she/she ceases supervising a trainee remains unchanged.)
To review the recent amendments, please access the Board’s web site at
www.njconsumeraffairs.gov/real/ , click the “Laws and Regulations” tab then click on
“Adoptions,” then scroll to February 5, 2007.
