ENTITLED, An Act to revise provisions regarding broker price opinions, comparative market analyses, and appraisals.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA:
    Section 1. That chapter 36-21A be amended by adding thereto a NEW SECTION to read as follows:

    For the purposes of this chapter, the terms, broker price opinion and comparative market analysis, mean an estimate prepared by a licensed broker or salesperson that details the probable selling price or leasing price of a particular parcel of or interest in real property and provides a varying level of detail about the property's condition, market and neighborhood, and information on comparable properties, but does not include an automated valuation model. A broker price opinion or a comparative market analysis is not an appraisal.
