About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Nebraska registers appraisal management companies through the Real Property Appraiser Board under the Nebraska Appraisal Management Company Registration Act. An AMC sits between lenders and the appraisers it engages, and the state wants a financial backstop standing behind that role.

The $25,000 bond is in favor of the state for the benefit of any person damaged by a violation of the Act. A person harmed by a violation can bring an action against the AMC and the surety, with the surety’s aggregate liability to all claimants capped at the bond amount.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. AMCs that pay their appraisers on time and follow the Act treat the bond as a registration formality.

Neb. Rev. Stat. 76-3203 (AMC Registration Act)The Nebraska Appraisal Management Company Registration Act requires an applicant to furnish the Real Property Appraiser Board a $25,000 surety bond, in favor of the state for the benefit of any person damaged by a violation of the Act. The bond requirement formerly sat at section 76-3211, which was repealed by Laws 2024, LB989, and the surety bond provision now appears at section 76-3203. Confirm the current section and form with the Board.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $25,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with the Appraiser Board. Your executed $25,000 bond arrives by email, ready to file with your AMC registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $250 at the $25,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
