How to start multi family underwriting?

I receive emails from Joe Fairless and he mentioned some non-traditional ways to begin working with multi family properties. One of them was to outsource underwriting for investors that have a lot of deal flow. I'm interested in doing this and seeking advice on how to get started. A little about my background: I spent almost 20 years working in financial services. I started with commercial lending at a large regional bank (SunTrust) where I did some underwriting for commercial properties. The bulk of my time was spent as an investment analyst where I analyzed companies. I have an MBA in finance from a top 20 school (Emory University) and hold the CFA charter (Chartered Financial Analyst). I am well versed in financial analysis and spreadsheet modeling. How should I go about starting a business as an independent (outsourced) underwriter? Thanks for your help.
