Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

practice in all transactions or appraisal reports in accordance with the provisions of

Act, and the rules adopted pursuant to this Act. An associate real estate trainee appraiser shall be required to have
a State certified
general real estate
appraiser or State certified residential real estate appraiser who holds a
valid license under this Act
to co-sign all appraisal reports. A supervising appraiser may not supervise more than 3 associate real estate trainee appraisers at one time.
