Texas Appraiser Licensing And Certification Board Meeting
The meeting commenced with the pledging of allegiance to the flag and the state flag. Key discussions included addressing excused board member absences, noting one member was expecting a child and another was potentially delayed. The board also heard opening remarks from the chair following a productive workshop. A significant portion of the meeting involved a detailed presentation by Pearson View regarding appraiser examinations, content outlines, testing center locations (including the addition of Alpine), and the examinee experience, including score reporting and fees. Staff reports included year-end data (as the fiscal year ended in August) and updates on regulatory matters, such as the upcoming ASC audit in September 2026 and the mandatory implementation of a new valuation bias and fair housing course starting in January 2026. Further updates covered the Appraiser Qualifications Board (AQB) exposure draft regarding criteria changes, staff achievements in the state employee charitable campaign, and extensive details regarding the upcoming launch of the new Real Estate and Appraiser License Management Portal (REALM portal) on December 10th. The transition process includes a system downtime window from December 2nd to December 10th, during which license management tools will be inaccessible. License holders were advised to complete any necessary renewals before December 2nd.
