How to Pass Your Appraiser License Exam the First Time

All real estate appraisers must pass the National Uniform Licensing and Certification Examination as the final step toward earning their appraiser license. The exam is not easy. According to The Appraisal Foundation exam statistics for 2017, 1 in 3 people fail the Licensed Residential exam and 1 in 4 people fail the Certified Residential exam on the first try. Here’s how to pass your appraiser license exam the first time.

Take high-quality licensing courses

Before you can take the national certification exam, you’ll need to meet the AQB’s qualifying education requirements for your specific license level. Be sure to enroll in high-quality appraisal courses and take your coursework seriously. Soaking up the material over a period of time vs. cramming at the last minute will give you a much better chance of passing.
