Why appraisers join

  1. 01

    Stop wearing every hat

    Our central office takes care of the client communication, sales, accounting, payroll, taxes, and records compliance. We take care of the extras that bog down the day so you can do more appraisals.

  2. 02

    Don't be a slave to the job

    Take the vacation - our appraisers do! Don't worry about working on the road, or coming back to slow order volume.

  3. 03

    One portal for everything

    Our easy-to-use proprietary web portal streamlines the entire workflow. From our AI assisted scheduling center and automated client updates, to our market analytics report generator and transparent performance metrics, we help you complete your reports faster.

  4. 04

    Expert appraisal team

    Join our team of expert appraisers and get access to advice, or help with hard assignments. Do you need help with UAD 3.6 or a difficult property? Our team is here to help you.

What our support team does for you

  • Sales

    You do not have to hunt the next client. We bring the orders in.

  • Client updates

    The client hears from us at every step, so those status calls stay off your phone.

  • Billing

    We send the invoice and follow the payment. Getting paid is not a job you take home.

  • Tax reporting

    Payroll and the year-end tax forms are handled for you, so tax season is not your second shift.

  • Compliance

    Workfiles and credentials stay in order, so compliance is not another hat you wear.

  • Covered costs

    MLS, E&O, your license renewal, continuing education, and gas are costs we cover.

  • Software

    The software you write the report in stays current, and we cover the fee.

  • Language support

    When a client needs another language, our team takes that conversation.

From the desk of the CEO

As an independent fee appraiser, you have to wear all the hats. You have to be a receptionist, accountant, sales person, billing specialist, web guru, and finally an appraiser. Then, you have to keep up with taxes, filings, compliance, and more. Why not just appraise property, make great money, and be happy?
