If you are asking about becoming an appraiser than no it will not be a plus-it will be a REQUIREMENT. The supervisor will provide the expertise and supervision that is necessary. There is little in common between a BPO and an appraisal. (Appraisals are much more indepth)
I doubt that doing BPOs is going to help anyone get an appraiser supervisor. The standards for doing BPOs and appraisals are different. The agent would have to basically learn from scratch. The experience as a real estate agent, IMHO, is more important.
REO = Real Estate Owned It refers to when a lender has taken back a property in foreclosure and now holds the asset.
BPO = Broker Price Opinion Ostensibly, BPOs are used by agents and brokers to provide their opinions of value to clients during the course of their brokerage activities. In reality, they have become an alternate form of appraisals used by some of the lenders in lieu of the more comprehensive appraisals that we normally perform.
IMHO - In My Humble Opinion. A variation of IMO (in my opinion), or IMNSHO (in my not-so-humble opinion).
