What job pays better? Home inspector or appraiser.?

It is not a matter of which pays better. It is a matter of which one you can bring in the most business with. Everything comes down to marketing and being able to get business. An appraisal is necessary on just about every real estate transaction. (purchases and refinances). However, an inspection is only needed on some purchases, not all.

Regular inspection is $200-300.00, standard appraiser same price. It's harder to became an appraiser, then inspector. But you can do this two jobs in the same time, this you can build a good business, but takes same time. I hope this helps. Good Luck!
Appraisers require much more training and educating than inspectors do. They are, as previously stated, required much more often than an inspector is. I usually charge between $225.00 and $600.00 for an appraisal and there is no lack of work. I live in Ontario, Canada and the mortgage business is booming now, but even if it wasn't, people need to refinance every 3-5 years, or want a larger line of credit. There is a higher demand for appraisers.
