Employment

Major employers:

  • Local and state government agencies

Outlook

Job growth will be about as fast as average for appraisers and assessors. Mobile technology allows workers to be more productive. The economy affects real estate appraisers who do not work for the government. When the economy is strong, more people buy and sell property. This increases the demand for appraisers. However, when the economy is weak, fewer properties are sold and the demand for appraisers drops.
