N.M. Stat. § 61-30-20
Nonresident applicants; reciprocity. (Repealed effective
July 1, 2030.)
A. Pursuant to Title 11 of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and
Enforcement Act of 1989 as amended by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act, the board shall issue a registration, license or certificate to a
nonresident if the applicant's home state complies with Title 11 as determined by the
appraisal subcommittee.
B. The registration, license or certificate shall be issued upon payment of the
application fee, verification that the applicant has complied with the applicant's resident
state's current education requirements and the filing with the board of a license history
and verification of good standing issued by the licensing board of the other state.
C. The applicant shall file an irrevocable consent that suits and actions may be
commenced against the applicant in the proper court of any county of this state in which
a cause of action may arise from the applicant's actions as a real estate appraiser
trainee, state licensed residential real estate appraiser or state certified real estate
appraiser or in which the plaintiff may reside, by the service of any processes or
pleadings authorized by the laws of this state on the board, the consent stipulating and
agreeing that such service of processes or pleadings on the board shall be taken and
held in all courts to be as valid and binding as if personal service has been made upon
the applicant in New Mexico. In case any process or pleading mentioned in the case is
served upon the board, it shall be by duplicate copies, one of which shall be filed in the
office of the board and the other immediately forwarded by registered mail to the
nonresident real estate appraiser trainee, state licensed residential real estate appraiser
or state certified real estate appraiser to whom the processes or pleadings are directed.
