to (A) obtain the permission of the owner or occupier of the premises, and (B) identify
himself or herself as an appraiser, and (2) that a limited appraiser shall in any written
statement, including contracts, stationary and business cards, state that such limited
appraiser shall not perform an appraisal in connection with a federally related transaction, as defined in FIRREA.
