Requesting an Appraisers List

1. On the Appraisers page, specify the order of your results by selecting one of the choices in the Sorted By drop-down list.  Results are presented in alphabetical order, A-Z, or numerical order, 0-9.
   
   

2. Then enter at least one of the following requirements.
   

   Note: Where indicated, you may enter partial information (one or more characters) to retrieve records (appraiser listing) that correspond with the entered criteria, e.g., entering "P" in the City field retrieves all appraisers in cities that begin with "P." If multiple fields allow a partial entry and partial information is entered, all specified criteria is searched and only matching information is retrieved/displayed.
   

   •	State: Select the state in which the appraiser is licensed from the drop-down list. If All States is selected, an additional requirement such as a specific Last Name must be entered.
   •	License: Type the full or partial identifying code for a specific FHA-approved appraiser or a list of appraisers with similar identification numbers. The first two letters of the appraiser ID correspond to the state in which the appraiser is licensed.
   •	Last Name: Type a full or partial appraiser last name.
   •	City: Type a full or partial city name for the business location of the appraiser(s).
   •	Zip Code: Type a full or partial zip code for the business location of the appraiser(s).

3. If necessary, further streamline your results by selecting a category from the Ethnicity, Race, Gender, Status, Exam Passed, and/or AQB Indicator drop-down lists.
   Note: All Ethnicities, All Races, All Genders, Active Status, Exam Passed: Yes, and AQB Indicator: Yes are selected unless you specify other choices.
