As of today — December 22, 2025 — I took a hard look at the numbers instead of relying on momentum or assumptions.
The period
- October 1, 2025 → December 22, 2025
- Total paid from BPOs: $29,470
That’s not projected income. That’s money already paid.
Time breakdown
- October: 31 days
- November: 30 days
- December 1–22: 22 days
- Total: 83 days
The averages
When you spread that across the time actually worked:
- Monthly average: ≈ $10,716/month
- Weekly average: ≈ $2,476/week
- Daily average: ≈ $355/day
These aren’t best weeks or lucky streaks. This is the average across nearly three months.
The goal
My goal for 2025 is $125,000 from BPOs alone.
Based on these numbers, that goal isn’t speculative. It’s measurable.
When income averages north of $10K per month, six figures isn’t hype — it’s arithmetic.
When income averages north of $10K per month, six figures isn’t hype — it’s arithmetic.
And here’s the part people overlook
This is happening during winter — the time of year when real estate is supposed to slow down.
Closings pause. Buyers hesitate. Listings sit.
But banks don’t stop needing valuations.
Loan reviews still happen. Portfolios still need updates. Risk still has to be monitored. That’s why this income keeps showing up when traditional real estate quiets down.
Why Some Agents Don’t Succeed With BPOs
Some agents don’t fail at BPOs because of the work.
They fail because they let the sound of their own wheels drive them crazy.
They fail because they let the sound of their own wheels drive them crazy.
That line comes from Take It Easy, written by Jackson Browne and made famous in the early 1970s. The song is about being in motion, chasing something, and feeling pressure to figure it all out while you’re still moving.
The warning is simple:
Don’t let your own thoughts, momentum, and self-doubt become the thing that stops you.
Don’t let your own thoughts, momentum, and self-doubt become the thing that stops you.
That applies perfectly to BPOs.
Where agents actually get stuck
BPOs aren’t complicated work.
They’re repeatable work.
They’re repeatable work.
And repetition is where the noise starts.
Instead of trusting a process, agents begin to:
- Second-guess values they already know are reasonable
- Re-check comps again and again
- Overthink condition adjustments
- Rewrite comments that don’t need rewriting
What should take 30 minutes turns into an hour and a half.
Not because the BPO requires it.
Because they’re listening too closely to the sound of their own wheels.
Because they’re listening too closely to the sound of their own wheels.
Why overthinking makes BPOs feel “not worth it”
When agents say BPOs don’t pay enough, what they often mean is:
“I’m spending twice as long as I should on each one.”
Overthinking doesn’t meaningfully improve accuracy.
It just doubles the time.
It just doubles the time.
And once that happens:
- The pay feels small
- The work feels frustrating
- The system never gets a chance to work
Most agents quit before efficiency ever shows up.
The agents who succeed learn to detach
BPOs reward:
- Consistency
- Reasonable judgment
- Process over perfection
The agents who make them work don’t ask:
“Is this flawless?”
They ask:
“Is this supported, reasonable, and consistent with the market?”
Then they submit it and move on.
That detachment is what quiets the noise.
How the Time Actually Works
One reason these numbers hold up is efficiency.
Inside my course, I teach a repeatable BPO workflow that allows most reports to be completed in 30 minutes or less, with 15 minutes being common once the system is dialed in.
That’s the difference between BPOs feeling underpaid and BPOs making real financial sense.
It’s not about rushing.
It’s about removing overthinking and trusting a defensible process.
It’s about removing overthinking and trusting a defensible process.
A Quick Note If This Resonates
I’m currently days away from closing out a 20% discount on my BPO training.
- Normal enrollment: $650
- 20% off through January 1st
- After January 1st, enrollment returns to full price
I don’t run this discount often, and it’s closing with the year.
If you’re an agent who wants predictable income — especially during slower seasons — this is the window to get in at the reduced rate and start the new year with a system already in place.
Final thought
Most agents don’t fail at BPOs because they can’t do the work.
They fail because they never get out of their own way long enough to become efficient.
They fail because they never get out of their own way long enough to become efficient.
They let the sound of their own wheels drive them crazy.
Once that noise quiets down, the work speeds up — and the income finally starts to make sense.
Let’s be clear right from the start: this path is not for everyone.
If you’re chasing adrenaline, big emotional wins, or the rush of a closing every week, BPO work will probably feel unexciting.
But if you zoom out and look at why most agents got into real estate in the first place, the story changes.
Most agents didn’t leave traditional jobs because they hate structure or repetition.
They left because the income math didn’t work.
Why Agents Choose Real Estate (Even With the Chaos)
In a huge portion of the regular workforce, you can do everything right — show up, work hard, master your role — and still never touch the income you can make by selling just a few houses a year.
That’s the truth.
Two or three transactions can out-earn:
Months of salaried work
Long hours with capped upside
Repetitious jobs that never scale
So agents tolerate the volatility, the slow seasons, the unpredictability — because when commissions hit, they hit hard.
That upside is what pulled most of us in.
The Real Issue Was Never Repetition
Here’s the part that gets misunderstood.
Agents don’t actually mind repetitive work.
They already:
Follow checklists
Fill out the same contracts
Upload the same documents
Make similar calls and send similar emails
The problem isn’t repetition.
The problem is that repetition, in most jobs, doesn’t pay more over time.
You can master it… and still be stuck.
So agents assume there’s a tradeoff:
steady work or real estate income — but not both.
What If You Didn’t Have to Choose?
This is where BPOs quietly flip the script.
What if you could:
Do work that becomes second nature
Get faster with repetition instead of bored by it
Remove emotional decision-making
And still produce substantial income
That’s the “have your cake and eat it too” moment most agents never consider.
With BPOs, repetition isn’t the downside — it’s the advantage.
Let Me Put Real Numbers Behind This
Today is December 19, 2025.
As of today, I’ve earned $122,782 this year — strictly from BPOs.
No courses.
No classes.
No coaching revenue.
No side offers.
Just BPO work.
My goal for the year is $125,000, and I’m within striking distance — again, purely from valuations.
That’s not a hypothetical.
That’s not a projection.
That’s not a sales pitch.
That’s what a systemized BPO operation looks like in real life.
And yes — you can do this too when you stop guessing and start working with a repeatable process.
Why Most Agents Never See the Opportunity
Most agents approach BPOs the wrong way.
They take a few orders here and there.
They overthink every report.
They treat each one like a mini appraisal.
They aim for perfection instead of efficiency.
Then they conclude, “This isn’t worth the time.”
And they’re right — for that approach.
BPOs only become powerful when you stop treating them as isolated tasks and start running them as a systemized operation.
That’s the pivot.
How Six-Figure BPO Income Actually Happens
Six figures doesn’t come from doing harder BPOs.
It comes from doing simpler BPOs faster, cleaner, and more consistently.
That means:
Knowing what actually matters in a report — and what doesn’t
Cutting decision time down to minutes, not hours
Using frameworks instead of gut feelings
Letting volume work for you instead of against you
At first, BPOs feel like work.
Then they feel familiar.
Eventually, they become mechanical.
And when the work becomes mechanical, income becomes predictable.
That’s when agents realize they didn’t trade commissions for repetition —
they traded volatility for control.
Why I Don’t Give the System Away for Free
I’m open about teaching agents how to do this — and just as clear about what I don’t do.
I don’t publish my full workflows.
I don’t hand out my comp-selection logic.
I don’t give away the decision trees that took thousands of reports to refine.
Not because I’m being secretive — but because this is intellectual property built through repetition, mistakes, and refinement.
What I will say is this:
Once you stop treating BPOs like judgment calls and start treating them like a repeatable process, everything changes.
Speed increases.
Stress drops.
Confidence goes up.
Income stabilizes.
The Quiet Advantage No One Talks About
BPO income doesn’t care about:
Interest rates
Buyer hesitation
Market headlines
Open house traffic
Valuations happen every week, in every market, for reasons that have nothing to do with retail transactions.
That’s why agents who commit to this lane don’t panic during slow seasons — they already built a revenue floor.
Who This Path Is Actually For
This works best for agents who:
Prefer structure over chaos
Want steady, weekly income
Are fine with repetition when it pays
Think like operators, not gamblers
Want to use their license strategically
It’s not a downgrade from traditional real estate.
It’s an upgrade in control.
Final Thought
You got into real estate because the upside was higher than most jobs.
BPOs don’t remove that upside — they stabilize it.
They take work that becomes second nature and attach it to income that actually scales with repetition.
And if you want to shortcut the learning curve, avoid the guesswork, and build this the smart way — that’s exactly what the systems I teach are designed to do.
Most agents think stress in real estate comes from not making enough money.
In reality, it usually comes from something more specific:
Waiting on one big check to solve everything.
Rent, mortgage, marketing, groceries, insurance, lead platforms — all of it gets mentally stacked onto the next closing. And when that closing delays, falls apart, or stretches another 30 days, the pressure compounds.
That’s where burnout starts.
Not from lack of work — but from too much dependence on one outcome.
Why Small, Daily Income Reduces Pressure
When agents add a couple of BPOs per day to their routine, something subtle but powerful happens.
They stop asking:
“Will this closing save me?”
And start thinking:
“Today already counts.”
That shift alone reduces stress more than most productivity hacks ever could.
What This Looks Like in Real Numbers
Let’s keep this practical.
An agent who completes 10 BPOs per week is doing:
- 2 BPOs per weekday
- Average fee: $45–$60
- Conservative weekly income: ~$500
- Monthly: ~$2,000
- Annualized: ~$24,000
This isn’t “extra hustle.”
It’s daily stabilization.
It’s daily stabilization.
It’s money that shows up regardless of whether buyers hesitate or sellers pause.
How Much Time Does That Really Take?
Those 2 BPOs per day are typically completed:
- In about 2 hours total, including drive time
- Without showings
- Without buyers
- Without sellers
- Without contract pressure
That time often fits into:
- Early mornings
- Gaps between appointments
- Windows that would otherwise be unproductive
The goal isn’t speed.
It’s reliability.
It’s reliability.
A Day That Feels Manageable Again
Here’s what a normal weekday looks like for an agent who includes BPOs:
Morning
- Coffee
- Complete 1–2 BPOs
- Submit reports
- Day already feels productive
Midday
- Admin
- Follow-ups
- One or two showings
Afternoon / Evening
- Listing work or buyer appointment
There’s no waiting to see if the day “worked.”
It already did.
It already did.
And when a closing happens?
That check no longer carries the emotional weight of survival.
It becomes upside, not pressure.
It becomes upside, not pressure.
Why This Matters More Than Big Commissions
Big commissions are great.
But relying on them exclusively creates a cycle:
- Bills wait on closings
- Marketing gets paid with future money
- Stress builds when timelines slip
That’s why many agents turn to commission advances.
And that’s where things quietly get riskier.
The Hidden Cost of Commission Advances
Commission advances feel like relief — until you look closer.
They:
- Borrow against income you haven’t earned yet
- Add fees and interest
- Shrink your next closing
- Increase pressure on deals that are already fragile
You’re stacking risk on top of uncertainty.
BPO income works the opposite way:
- Work completed
- Payment earned
- No borrowing
- No future penalty
That difference is what lowers stress.
How BPO Income Pays for Marketing (Without Anxiety)
Most agents already spend $500–$2,000 per month on:
- Buyer leads
- Seller platforms
- CRMs
- Marketing tools
When those expenses depend on future commissions, every ad feels like a gamble.
But when BPO income covers those costs?
- Marketing becomes funded
- Decisions become calmer
- Closings become cleaner
Your business stops borrowing from tomorrow.
Why This Works in Any Market
Closings are binary.
They either happen — or they don’t.
They either happen — or they don’t.
BPOs aren’t.
Valuation work gets ordered:
- In slow markets
- In hot markets
- During holidays
- During rate changes
That consistency is why adding just a few BPOs per day changes how the entire business feels.
Agents aren’t replacing sales.
They’re removing pressure from them.
They’re removing pressure from them.
The Real Reason Agents Hesitate
Most agents don’t hesitate because of money.
They hesitate because they’re afraid of:
- Adding complexity
- Losing time
- Creating more stress
Ironically, a small layer of predictable income usually does the opposite.
It simplifies decisions.
It reduces emotional load.
It makes the business feel steadier.
It reduces emotional load.
It makes the business feel steadier.
Bottom Line
Adding a couple of BPOs per day doesn’t just add income.
It removes the pressure of waiting on one big check to solve everything.
That’s why agents who do it don’t just earn more — they think more clearly, sleep better, and make smarter decisions.
And that’s a different way to run a real estate business.
A quiet next step
If valuation work has been on your radar and you just want to see whether it fits your situation, you can start here:
👉 BPO Interest Form
https://brokerpriceopinions.net/page/bpo-interest-form
https://brokerpriceopinions.net/page/bpo-interest-form
No pressure — just clarity.
I started doing Broker Price Opinions in 2008, right in the middle of the Great Recession.
Back then, BPOs weren’t trendy. They weren’t talked about in Facebook groups. There were no courses, no YouTube channels, no flashy marketing around them. They were simply work — and there was a lot of it.
Foreclosures were everywhere. Short sales were piling up. Banks needed eyes on properties, fast valuations, condition checks, and reliable local professionals who could keep up with the volume.
That’s where BPOs came in.
And while most agents were trying to survive the chaos of the market, I leaned into valuation work.
That decision changed everything.
The Part Most People Miss About BPOs
Here’s something most agents don’t realize:
BPOs didn’t disappear when the foreclosure crisis ended.
What happened instead was far more important.
Valuation companies — also known as AMCs — got used to a certain level of revenue. They built systems, staff, software, and investor expectations around that volume.
When foreclosures slowed, the industry didn’t shut down.
It adapted.
And that’s the key reason BPOs are still thriving today.
From Foreclosures to a Full Valuation Ecosystem
In 2008–2012, BPOs were largely tied to:
- Foreclosures
- Short sales
- REO inventory
But over time, valuation companies expanded the scope of what they ordered.
Today, BPOs are just one part of a much larger valuation ecosystem that includes:
- Traditional BPOs with comps
- Exterior inspections you can complete from your car
- Interior inspections with no pricing analysis required
- Occupancy checks
- Property condition reports
- Verification and data-only assignments
- Loss mitigation and portfolio reviews
These companies didn’t shrink — they diversified.
And that’s why the valuation industry has quietly become a billion-dollar-a-year business in the United States.
The Consistency Is the Point
Since 2008, I have never had a year where my income from BPOs fell below six figures.
Not during slow markets.
Not during hot markets.
Not when interest rates changed.
Not when inventory dried up.
Not during hot markets.
Not when interest rates changed.
Not when inventory dried up.
Why?
Because valuation work doesn’t rely on buyers being emotional, sellers being motivated, or deals closing on time.
Banks don’t “wait and see.”
They order valuations every single week, regardless of what the market headlines say.
That consistency is what makes BPOs different from traditional real estate income.
This Isn’t a Side Hustle — It’s an Industry
One of the biggest misconceptions I hear is:
“BPOs are just something agents do when the market is bad.”
That hasn’t been true for a long time.
Valuation companies now operate year-round, across multiple asset classes and use cases. They need agents who understand:
- How to work efficiently
- How to meet deadlines
- How to stay compliant
- How to handle volume
Agents who treat BPOs casually burn out or quit.
Agents who treat them like a systemized business build predictable income.
Why This Matters Now
The real estate market will always move in cycles. Closings speed up, slow down, pause, and restart.
Valuation work doesn’t care.
That’s why more agents today are quietly shifting part of their focus away from chasing deals — and toward building stable, repeatable valuation income alongside their sales business.
Not because they’re giving up on real estate.
But because they’re done relying on only one income lever.
The Bottom Line
I didn’t stumble into BPOs for a quick win.
I built around them — starting in 2008 — and they’ve carried me through every market cycle since.
The reason BPOs are still here isn’t nostalgia or luck.
It’s because valuation companies found ways to sustain, expand, and monetize this work at scale — and they’re not going back.
For agents willing to learn the system and treat it seriously, BPOs aren’t a fallback.
They’re a foundation.
Real estate moves in cycles, and lately a lot of agents have been feeling the shifts — deals taking longer, buyers hesitating, sellers waiting things out. Some agents are still busy, sure, but many are noticing that income just isn’t as predictable as it used to be. A few are even wondering if it’s time to grab a 9–5 job just to steady things out.
But before you count your license out, there’s something worth considering:
More and more agents are turning to valuation work because it’s steady, teachable, and consistent — and it doesn’t depend on how the market is behaving that week.
If that sounds familiar, let’s talk honestly about why my BPO Income Accelerator may be the smartest move you make this year.
Not hype.
Not pressure.
Just a clear look at why this system works.
Not pressure.
Just a clear look at why this system works.
1. You’re Not Just Buying a Course — You’re Getting Lifetime Mentorship
Most BPO programs out there are a download link and “good luck.”
That’s not what I teach.
That’s not what I teach.

You’ll always have support whenever you need clarity or direction.
2. You Learn the Same System I Use to Earn Over $120K/Year Doing BPOs
I teach from real-world experience — not theory.
My own BPO production brings in over $120,000 per year from reports that average $47 each.
And here’s the part that surprises most agents:
Once you understand the workflow and incorporate AI properly, each BPO takes about 20–30 minutes to complete.
This system is predictable, repeatable, and scalable.
It’s the kind of income structure the traditional real estate model simply doesn’t offer.
It’s the kind of income structure the traditional real estate model simply doesn’t offer.
3. You Get the BPO Manager App — Your Operational Headquarters
Most agents try to manage BPOs with email folders and scattered spreadsheets.
That’s not a real system.
That’s not a real system.
The BPO Manager App gives you:
- organized order tracking
- due dates
- expected pay dates
- revenue reporting
- a clean dashboard with everything in one place
👉 App Demo: https://bpomanager.biz/bpo-manager-app
This is the infrastructure behind consistent weekly income.
4. You Learn How to Use AI the Right Way — Safely and Effectively
AI is a powerful tool in the valuation space — if it’s used correctly.
I teach you:
- how to apply AI logic to comp selection
- how to write clean, compliant valuation comments
- how to accelerate your workflow without cutting corners
- how to avoid compliance mistakes
This is where you shave hours off your workload while improving quality.
