HR 6025 lets any state-licensed or certified appraiser perform FHA home appraisals if they meet national competency standards and complete FHA-specific training. It also allows federal employee appraisers to work nationwide with one state license, creates a formal "trainee appraiser" category, and adds VA, USDA, and HUD to the federal Appraisal Subcommittee.
This affects real estate appraisers, appraisal management companies, state licensing agencies, and home buyers or sellers using FHA, VA, USDA, or HUD-related mortgages.
The changes would broaden the pool of appraisers eligible to work on federally backed home loans and shift some oversight and training responsibilities to HUD and state registries.
