What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
An appraisal management company hires and manages independent appraisers for lenders. Georgia's Real Estate Appraiser and Real Estate Appraisal Management Company Classification and Regulation Act (O.C.G.A. § 43-39A) conditions AMC registration on a surety bond — a guarantee in favor of the state that protects appraisers and the public against the AMC's misconduct.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Georgia (the obligee). The bond is conditioned to pay damages, up to the bond amount, to any appraiser aggrieved by an act of the AMC — for example, an AMC that fails to pay appraisers for completed work.
The bond must be at least $20,000 and stay active for the life of your registration. Let it lapse and your AMC registration can be suspended — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $20,000 filing continuous.
