Post: Becoming an underwriter

Hey all, first of all this isn't specifically real estate related, but instead mortgage related. I'm looking to get into the mortgage underwriting as a career. I have no previous experience in the field but want to start educating myself on the practices and software associated with underwriting. Any underwriters here that have some good resources or suggestions on how to best get in to the industry? Also, what are the certifications I should start studying for? I've begun learning about the NMLS exam as a start.

@Bryan Devitt Ah, that makes sense now. 

@Bryan Devitt so you're saying another strategy would be to sell the house and use the equity to fund a more expensive deal or multiple deals?

@Bryan Devitt How does he have 150k tied up in the house? He only has 18,000 out of pocket. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just not understanding what you're saying.

I own a Tiny House and have been trying to sell it for quite some time now. If I had land to set it up on, I would try and rent it out but I think if I sold it I could use the profits to invest in a higher return property. Looking for suggestions on where to post it and how to market something like that. If I decide to try and rent it, I don't know how to price rent rates. I've been trying to sell it locally on FB marketplace, Craigslist, and also have it listed on Tinyhouselistings.com but can't seem to find a serious buyer.
