RE Appraiser License
I'm curious if anyone here has a real estate appraiser license. I'm certain it's they direction I want to take my career while building wealth through the BRRR and Rehab & Resell. My market area already needs one or two more appraisers and two of the other three are already in their late 60's.
The state board freely admits they have a problem with the licensing process that is going to make a massive state-wide shortage, because licensees must spend at least a year under another appraiser. The local appraisers won't take me on, because they don't want the responsibility while training future competition. I wouldn't have an issue relocating or (preferably) commuting for a year, then returning to my market. My problem I'm running into is finding how I can offer value to an appraiser to take me on. I have approached a few non locals, with almost no response, although I'm sure my experience as a Realtor and rehabbing a few homes would make my highly competent and a quick study.
Anybody here have any ideas? This is something I really want.
