Hello all. This is my first post to the forum. I don't want to beat a dead horse, however, I am a fairly new appraiser looking for general advice. I know things have been slow. I trained when rates were at 2%, got Residential Licensed in October of 2022, right when things slowed down. I am in process for my Certified, however, the BREA is dragging its feet. I'm struggling to get work. I get one a week on average. I've been told different things by different appraisers and I am trying to figure out how things work with the AMC's. I spoke to a seasoned appraiser in my area recently and he said he is doing 20 appraisals a week. If this is true, why am I getting one a week? I have been told by another appraiser to be the squeaky wheel and call and ask for work on a weekly basis. Is that going to do anything for me? The appraiser who supervised me said he never did that and didn't think that would work. Is it just a lack of experience and licensing keeping me from getting work or is there something I am missing?
Thanks,
Pete
