AI Summary

This bill aims to define key terms related to real property appraisal assignments and reports, including "client," "intended use," and "intended user." It also specifies that appraisal reports are prepared exclusively for the benefit of the appraiser's client or intended user, and that the appraiser is not liable in court or subject to disciplinary action from any person other than the client or intended user. This provides clarity and legal protections for appraisers in their professional activities.
