Maryland Higher Education Commission - Practical Applications of Real Estate Appraisal (PAREA) Grant Program - Established

February 5, 2026

Summary

If enacted, this bill would establish the Practical Applications of Real Estate Appraisal (PAREA) Grant Program, administered by the Maryland Higher Education Commission, to provide grants to individuals pursuing real estate appraiser credentials in historically redlined neighborhoods and underrepresented communities. The program aims to close appraisal gaps by increasing the number of qualified appraisers in underserved areas, which may help address appraisal bias and improve access to credit.
