Real Estate Appraiser Job Description

A real estate appraiser is a person who is qualified to give an opinion of the market value of real estate or personal property.

Real estate appraisers use their knowledge of real estate and market practices to provide unbiased opinions concerning the value of real property.

An appraiser can be hired by a mortgage loan originator, real estate broker, or any other person who wants an independent view of property value before investing money.

Appraisals help financial institutions determine how much money they can lend to potential borrowers.

Real estate appraisers also provide advice to home buyers, sellers, and lenders.
