Homebuyer Assistance Act of 2021

This bill modifies requirements for appraisers of Federal Housing Administration-insured mortgages. Currently, an appraiser must be certified by certain state or national entities.

The bill also provides specified educational requirements for appraisers for mortgages for single-family housing.
