  • (d) A person other than a state-registered appraiser, state-licensed appraiser, registered apprentice appraiser, or state-certified appraiser shall not assume or use that title or any title, designation, or abbreviation likely to create the impression of registration, licensing, or certification as an appraiser by this state.
