Institutions Examination Council
(FFIEC) is providing notice of
termination of temporary waiver relief
of appraiser credentialing requirements
for appraisals of federally related
transactions (FRTs) under $500,000 for
1-to-4 family residential real estate
transactions throughout the State of
North Dakota which was granted by
Order for a period of one year pursuant
to section 1119(b) of Title XI of the
Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery,
and Enforcement Act of 1989, as
amended (Title XI) and the rules
promulgated thereunder. The Order
provided that the temporary waiver for
residential real estate transactions
would terminate 60 days after the
effective date of a final rule issued by
the federal banking agencies increasing
the appraisal exemption threshold limit
for residential real estate transactions.
The federal banking agencies issued a
final rule that increased the appraisal
exemption threshold for residential real
estate transactions with an effective date
of October 9, 2019. The Order specified
that the temporary waiver for residential
real estate transactions will terminate 60
days after the effective date of that rule,
which will occur on December 8, 2019.

Washington, DC 20005.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
1119(b) of Title XI authorizes the ASC
to waive, on a temporary basis and with
concurrence of the FFIEC, ‘‘any
requirement relating to certification or
licensing of a person to perform
appraisals under [Title XI]’’ upon ‘‘a
written determination that there is a
scarcity of certified or licensed
appraisers to perform appraisals in
connection with [FRTs] 1 in a State, or
in any geographical political
subdivision of a State, leading to
significant delays in the performance of
such appraisals.’’ 2 The ASC has
promulgated regulations that set forth
procedures 3 governing the processing of
temporary waiver requests.
On August 1, 2018, the Governor of
North Dakota, the North Dakota
Department of Financial Institutions,
and the North Dakota Bankers
Association (Requester) submitted a
temporary waiver request to the ASC.
1 ‘‘Federally related transaction’’ (FRT) refers to
any real estate related financial transaction which:
(a) A federal financial institutions regulatory agency
engages in, contracts for, or regulates; and (b)
requires the services of an appraiser. (Title XI
§ 1121 (4), 12 U.S.C. 3350.)
2 12 U.S.C. 3348(b).
3 12 CFR part 1102, subpart A.

The Requester sought a temporary
waiver of not less than five years of
appraiser credentialing requirements for
appraisals of FRTs under $500,000 for 1to-4 family residential real estate
transactions and under $1,000,000 for
agricultural and commercial real estate
transactions throughout the State of
North Dakota.4
On July 9, 2019, the ASC convened a
Special Meeting to consider the request.
Based on the information provided by
the Requester, the North Dakota Real
Estate Appraiser Qualifications and
Ethics Board (Appraiser Board), and by
the public through comment letter
submissions, the ASC issued an Order
approving a limited version of the
waiver request.5
The Order, which was published in
the Federal Register,6 in pertinent part
included the following:
• A temporary waiver of appraiser
credentialing requirements for
appraisals of FRTs under $500,000 for
1-to-4 family residential real estate
transactions throughout the State of
North Dakota for a period of one year,
unless the federal banking agencies
issue a rule increasing appraisal
exemption threshold limits for
residential real estate transactions, in
which case the residential waiver will
terminate 60 days after the effective date
of that threshold increase.
The federal banking agencies issued a
final rule increasing the appraisal
exemption threshold limits for
residential real estate transactions with
an effective date of October 9, 2019.7
The temporary waiver for residential
real estate transactions terminates by its
own terms 60 days after the effective
date of that rule, which will occur on
December 8, 2019.
