About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

New Mexico registers appraisal management companies through the Real Estate Appraisers Board at the Regulation and Licensing Department, and conditions registration on a $25,000 surety bond. The bond is a compliance guarantee: it stands behind the company's obligations under the New Mexico Appraisal Management Company Registration Act.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of New Mexico (the obligee), with harmed parties protected. By statute, payments from the bond may be used only to cure a violation the Board has confirmed against the registrant, and a claim must be made within two years of the Board's final order finding a violation.

The bond must stay active for the life of your registration. Let it lapse and your registration is at risk — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $25,000 filing continuous.

NM AMC Registration Act (NMSA Ch. 47, Art. 14)New Mexico's Appraisal Management Company Registration Act (NMSA 1978, Chapter 47, Article 14) requires each AMC to file a $25,000 surety bond, underwritten by a corporate surety authorized in New Mexico, as a condition of registration with the Real Estate Appraisers Board. Bond payments may be used only to cure a Board-confirmed violation, and claims must be made within two years of the Board's final order. Confirm the current amount on your Board application.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the New Mexico AMC bond? +
The premium is $750 — a flat 3% of the fixed $25,000 bond amount, the same for every AMC. The $25,000 is set by statute, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $25,000? +
No. You pay $750. The $25,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is confirmed against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond? +
AMC bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many companies finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount registration bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the registration. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your registration never lapses over a missed email.
