What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Hawaii established an appraisal management company registration program under HRS chapter 466K, administered by the director as part of the Real Estate Appraiser Program. Every AMC applying for or renewing registration must post and maintain a $25,000 surety bond with the director.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State (the obligee). The bond protects consumers and appraisers — if an AMC practices negligence or violates the rules, an affected party can file a claim up to the bond's full amount, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
The bond must remain in full force for your registration. It stays effective until cancellation, which can occur only after 90 days' written notice to the program — so we track it and send renewal notices ahead of any lapse.
