75 Del. Laws, c. 105, § 3; 70 Del. Laws, c. 186, § 1; 75 Del. Laws, c. 436, § 47; 76 Del. Laws, c. 340, § 5; 77 Del. Laws, c. 199, § 35; 78 Del. Laws, c. 44, §§ 68, 69; 82 Del. Laws, c. 9, § 3; 83 Del. Laws, c. 433, § 28;
(a) Persons, who are presented to the Council by a supervising appraiser for registration as an appraiser trainee, shall provide a statement to the Council that the trainee:
- (1) Shall perform only those specific functions, which have been delineated in the supervising appraiser’s statement; and
- (2) Shall practice only under the direct supervision of a state-certified appraiser; and
- (3) Shall identify themselves to the public as a real estate appraisal trainee; and
(4) Has not been convicted of a crime that is substantially related to the practice of real estate appraisal. However, if after consideration of the factors set forth under § 8735(x)(3) of Title 29 through a hearing or review of documentation the Council determines that granting a waiver would not create an unreasonable risk to public safety, the Council, by an affirmative vote of a majority of the quorum, shall waive this paragraph (a)(4).
a.-d. [Repealed.]

- (c) In addition, the supervising state-certified real estate appraiser shall review and sign all appraisals prepared under the supervising state-certified real estate appraiser’s supervision by the appraiser trainee and shall accept total responsibility for the appraisal report.
- (d) The Council in its regulations shall determine the number of appraiser trainees that a supervising appraiser may supervise and the requirements of their supervision.
