Becoming a member appraiser
To become a member of LocateAppraisers.com only a couple of steps are
required. The first is to create a username and password for your profile. This
will be the method used for signing in to edit your profile. The next step is to
decide which area best fits your companies abilities. If your company provides
services in an immediate area, you may want to select the 5 county option for
coverage. If your company covers a larger area, a full state listing may make
more sense for you. Select the appropriate service and enter the billing and
credit card information that is specific to your card.
Entering a profile
Once you create a username and password and receive a
confirmation on screen of your billing information, you can begin creating your
profile. Remember any fields with an asterisk (*) are required fields.
To begin, enter all contact information you would like
lenders to use to contact you. This should include name, company name, address,
email, phone, fax and website address if applicable.
Use the browse button to identify a .jpeg, .jpg, .gif or
other file to add a picture, company logo, or anything that you would like to
help identify your company. You can preview what this will look like with
the view button. The color format for this image must be RGB and the optimum image size is 300 x 300
pixels.
Enter the license types for your company.
Enter a business description for your company that will be
used as the main body for your profile. Feel free to use quite a bit of space
for your profile.
Next define what state for which you will be providing
service. Only one state is available per profile. If you would like multiple
states, you will need to create multiple profiles for your company. Information
like business description can be copied and pasted into the other profiles using
the Ctrl-C function to copy and Ctrl-V function to paste. Next, if you have
chosen and paid for an entire state listing, that will be automatically created.
If you chose the 5 county listing choice, choose up to 5 counties you would like
to be listed for providing services.
Click submit and your profile is ready to go.

Use the browse button to identify a .jpeg, .jpg, .gif or

pixels.
Editing a profile
Editing a profile is as easy as entering your member login
information on the home page. This will bring you to your profile page. You will
then have access to change any information you would like. Remember the required
fields with asterisks (*) will need to be filled in to post your profile
successfully.
Searching for an Appraiser
You have two choices in searching for an appraiser.
1. The first is to enter a desired property zip code, and select the GO
button. This will filter a group of appraisers that are interested in providing
services in that area.
2. The second method is to select a State from the drop-down list, after
the page refreshes, you will be able to choose from a list of counties in that
state. Upon selecting a county, select the GO button to
refresh the page with the filtered appraisers.
Contacting a profile
To contact a profiled appraiser simply use
one of the contact methods located in the bottom left corner of their profile.
Your choices may include a link to their website, email, phone, or fax. Once one
of these methods is used, you will be working directly with the appraiser, not
LocateAppraisers.com.
