Finding of Emergency
The Department of Safety and Professional Services finds that an emergency exists and that this rule is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, or welfare. A statement of facts constituting the emergency is as follows:
Title XI of the Federal Financial Institutions Reform and Recovery Enforcement Act of 1989, as amended by the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, dictates reciprocity requirements for real estate appraisers in each state. The federal body that oversees reciprocity requirements is the Appraisal Subcommittee (ASC). Currently, Wis. Admin. Code s. SPS 81.04 is not in compliance with the federal legislation. The Code must be brought into compliance by July 1, 2013. At that time, the ASC will conduct an audit to determine which states are in compliance. If Wisconsin is designated “out of compliance," then federally regulated financial institutions may not engage a Wisconsin certified or licensed appraiser to perform an appraisal of property for a federally related transaction and other states will not be required to recognize Wisconsin credentialed appraisers seeking reciprocity. In order to implement the federally mandated reciprocity requirements before July 1, 2013, an emergency rule is needed.
