same question
I'm also curious to know. The following published requirements from their web site make it look almost impossible to get qualifying experience from appraising alone:
3. Submit settlement documentation that substantiates the completed activity. Remember to reduce all legal-size page to 8 1/2" X 11". Settlement documentation would include (1) of the following:
i. Signed closing statement showing commission paid to your company; or
ii. Copy of new deed showing date and new owner’s name; or
iii. Signed lease with commission check to your company verifying the property address
4. Submit proof of their material participation in the submitted transactions. Proof of material participation would include (2) of the following:
Your signature on the closing statement, contract or lease declaring you as principal, witness, agent, president, listing agent, selling agent, buyer or seller, or lessee or lessor.
A copy of the check that shows the commission paid to you for your role (must indicate property address, especially in case of a lease).
A copy of the deed showing you as grantee or grantor.
A notarized statement from your broker or supervisor on company letterhead, which verifies your exact role in the transaction and lists each property address and the amount of compensation (if any) you received for each. This is not applicable if you are the principal of your firm.
Notarized letters to you from buyers, sellers, tenants, landlords, participating brokers, etc., on company letterhead verifying and specifying your exact role in the transaction and listing the property address.
A signed listing agreement with your name on it.
Fully executed employment contract with proof of payment.
Principals/sole practitioners may supply a notarized statement from the settlement attorney or title company, or copies of legal documents that substantiate their position in the company.
Supervising brokers may also submit a notarized statement from an officer in the company indicating that the nature of employment involves material participation.
If you acted as a member of a team or in a supervisory capacity, additional documentation is required to prove your material participation. Explain your specific role in each transaction and your job responsibilities that were relevant to the completion of the transaction.
5. Complete and submit a Portfolio Submission Form with payment. Reminders:
Only completed activities involving the transfer, lease, finance, or development of real estate for appreciation or production of income, or used in a trade or business, or complete consulting reports, may be included in the portfolio.
Candidates may only submit activities in which they have direct or material participation.
