Commercial Real Estate Appraisal Utah

Commercial Real Estate Appraisal
A couple of years ago I completed my real estate appraisal education requirements here in Texas but never found a sponsor, which then led me to just get my real estate license which I just got this past December 2010. I wanted to get into commercial real estate, but just today found a real estate appraiser that agreed to sponsor me.

My question is: Can I pursue a Commercial Real Estate agent job and also do real estate appraisals? Or do I need to choose just one. Or is one field better than the other? I tend to think that with more knowledge of real estate appraisals, it would only help me in the field of real estate sales.


Need advice please.


Answer by Landlord
As long as your sponsor never appraises a property that your broker and any of the brokers agents are involved with you will be OK. Otherwise there would be a huge conflict of interest.

Your sponsor may not like you limiting his income and not agree to have you do both.

I think there would be a conflict of interest working both jobs at the same time. The jobs are very different in there scope One is a listing and sales job where you get paid only if/when a house or property you are involved in sells. The other is like a contract position where you make inspections/research values and get paid by submitting a report. Both are subject to the fluctuations of the housing and mortgage markets.
