Certified Real Estate Appraiser

Certified Real Estate Appraiser

WP Appraisers is seeking a Certified Residential Appraiser (W2 Team Member) to join our passionate team in the Tampa/Clearwater, Florida area. It's true, you can work less and make more than a staff appraiser at an appraisal management company.

We are not an AMC or a network of independently managed appraisers but an appraisal firm. If you are sick and tired of low fees, appraisal sweatshops, AMC staff appraising, corporate politics, micromanagement and poor scheduling, or the nuance of running your own business, we would love to hear from you.

We are committed to delivering exceptional service through our core values and professional virtues. We believe in fostering personal growth, professional development, and work-life balance. We are committed to creating a supportive environment where individuals can thrive personally and excel in their careers. Internally, our mission is to empower individuals to reach their fullest potential and lead fulfilling lives. Externally, our mission is to make the appraisals the easiest part of the loan process.

We desire to serve each other and our clients with a high level of service.
