If you are licensed, simply sign up with organizations that pay agents/brokers to perform BPOs -such as BPO companies, Appraisal Management Companies (AMC), REO asset managers, banks, lenders, etc.
Step 1 Sign up with BPO Companies and AMCs. You should be able to find companies to sign up with by doing web searches. Be aware that a few companies will not pay – avoid these companies. 
These companies are desperate to find agents/brokers and most likely will readily give you jobs. These organizations actively solicit agents/brokers to sign up. Also, be aware these companies market to recruit agents/brokers, so they will be relatively easy to find in your search. Most organizations in the industry are reputable and do pay. Typically, the higher-paying BPO companies are harder to find.
Step 2 Become BPO certified. Although most financial organizations do not require a BPO Certification, most financial organizations will prefer BPO-certified agents/brokers versus non-certified. Some organizations do require a BPO Certification or will only try new agents/brokers who are BPO Certified.
Step 3 Wait to be contacted. There are always BPOs needed all over the country – click here for more info on the Availability of BPOs. Typically, the companies you have signed up with should contact you when BPO jobs are available, and they don’t have any established agents/brokers to complete the work. This may take some time because agents with a BPO certification on the waitlist will typically get priority.
Step 4 Accept and Complete Orders. When a BPO company contacts you to complete a BPO, you will typically log onto their website to complete their online BPO form.
