How do I become a home (property) insurance adjuster?

Becoming a home insurance adjuster starts with your state's rules, because licensing varies sharply: some states require prelicensing education, a licensing exam, or both, while 16 jurisdictions do not license adjusters at all. Most people qualify through a resident license in their home state; if your state does not license adjusters, you can obtain a designated home state license instead, and Florida and Texas are the two states that issue them. A high school diploma is the typical entry-level education, and new adjusters generally start on small claims under supervision.
