I am a wannabe and I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions for me? I have been looking to get into appraisal the past couple of months. I have found someone willing to train me but at the price of 5000 dollars. Is this reasonable? I have the flexibility of arranging the payments to fit my needs, but it still seems a little excessive. My would be mentor is a certified general and has been in the business for 15 years and it seems he has a great amount of knowledge to be passed along. He already has one trainee now and will be looking for another soon. Is this an opportunity that I should jump at or consider other routes such as financial institutions (world savings bank). My reasoning for wanting to get into appraisal is to gain a skill and expertise to assist me in real estate investment decisions. I believe the ability to appraise any property is a great skill to have but the uncertainty and negativity surrounding the industry is frightening especially with a 5000 dollar investment. Is it a wise decision to pursue this career although my long term goal is to become a successful investor.
