US Real Estate Appraiser & AMC Licenses

Licensed real estate appraisers, appraiser trainees, and Appraisal Management Companies from official state registries — with expiring-license and new-license lead flags and disciplinary markers. States included: Illinois (29,000+ records) and Delaware (including AMC registrations). Every state that publishes its full license roster through an official data feed gets added as we find it - no request needed.

Who this is for

• Appraisal Management Companies — AMCs live or die by their panels of licensed appraisers. The new licenses filter surfaces newly certified appraisers and trainees entering the profession: panel-building leads nobody else has called.
• Lenders & credit unions — bulk-verify appraiser credentials and check disciplinary history against the official state record.
• E&O insurers — every practicing appraiser carries coverage; new licensees all need a policy.
• Appraisers themselves — competitive landscape by city, and AMC registration rosters.

What you get

One normalized record per license: name, license number, category (certified general, certified residential, licensed, trainee, AMC), city, status, issue and expiration dates, computed expires_in_days, is_expiring_soon, is_new_license, and ever_disciplined flags. Export to Excel, CSV, or JSON, or pull on a schedule via API.

One schema across every state

Every licence roster in this catalogue delivers the same columns, in the same order, meaning the same thing — whichever state or profession the records came from. Stack this dataset on top of any other KempData roster and the columns line up.

That takes real work. Illinois writes a lapsed licensee as NOT RENEWED in block capitals; Delaware writes the identical situation as Delinquent. Both arrive here as status: "lapsed". Names arrive SHOUTING and glued together; they leave as full_name, first_name, middle_name, last_name in proper case. Dates are MM/DD/YYYY, with an _iso twin for spreadsheets and imports.

The state's own word is never thrown away. Every translated value ships beside a *_raw twin — status_raw, credential_raw, name_raw — holding the source's exact string, so you can always check our work or apply your own rules. status_basis tells you whether the standing is the state's published fact or computed from the expiration date.

lapsed is worth knowing about. It is the recall pool: people who held the licence, let it run out, and can renew. When you need experienced people in a hurry, that is the list to call.
