    Is the Valuation Profession Right for You?

    Real estate appraisers, or valuation professionals, provide unbiased estimates of a property’s value. By completing various education and experience requirements, they can become licensed or certified.

    Valuation professionals play a key role in selling and refinancing decisions, zoning issues, property litigation and so much more.
