Appraisal Education /License

[Joi Johnson]

Hi everyone

Not sure if this is the correct forum. But I was wondering if any of you have gotten your appraiser license or taken any relevant classes to get a more specific number of how much value you can add to a property by upgrading or adding certain aspects. Do you think a general guide book would give you good enough numbers to make an estimate or does the market play enough of a difference to get more specific market based information? Would it just be easier and cheaper to have a go-to appraiser who I could consult with about a property and potential improvements?

Any feedback in general? Thanks!
