Job description

Impact Valuation Group (IVG)

W-2 Staff Appraiser or Independent Membership Appraiser

Impact Valuation Group (IVG) is expanding nationwide and currently has more qualified appraisal orders than our teams can fulfill. We are seeking Certified Residential Appraisers interested in joining IVG under one of two professional engagement models:

• Full-Time W-2 Staff Appraiser, or

• Independent Appraiser – Membership Model

Both options provide consistent order flow, full appraisal independence, and a centralized support system designed to remove administrative burden—without sales pressure or client chasing.

Two Ways to Work With IVG

Option 1: Full-Time W-2 Staff Appraiser

Designed for certified appraisers seeking stability, benefits, and predictable income, with additional upside tied to production—not pressure.

What This Role Includes

• Full-time W-2 employment

• Consistent monthly order volume provided by IVG

• No sales, marketing, or client management responsibilities

• Full appraisal independence — value, scope, and conclusions are always yours

• Appraiser-led team environment with collaboration and mentorship

• Dedicated IVG support staff managing workflow, platforms, and coordination

Compensation Structure

• Base salary

• Production incentive once monthly quota is achieved:

  • 60% of the appraisal fee on all completed orders above the monthly quota

Additional Benefits

• Employee benefits (details shared during interview process)

• Eligibility for progressive membership participation and profit-sharing as volume and tenure grow

• Long-term growth opportunities (review roles, leadership, specialty assignments)

Option 2: Independent Appraiser — Membership Model

Built for certified appraisers who want higher per-order earnings and flexibility, while leveraging IVG’s centralized infrastructure and steady order flow.

Minimum Participation Requirement

• 21 completed orders per month

Compensation Structure

• Tiered distribution increases as volume increases

• No maximum volume — accept additional orders as your schedule allows beyond the minimum

Membership Growth & Profit Sharing

• Monthly Order Volume determines fee split

• Eligible members participate in company profit-sharing, paid biannually

• Higher volume unlocks increased participation in company profits

Centralized Ordering & Appraiser Support

IVG operates a centralized ordering and coordination system designed to shield appraisers from the complexity of managing multiple client platforms.

IVG Support Handles

• Order intake and assignment setup across multiple client systems

• Status updates, revisions, cancellations, and reassignments

• Centralized communication with lenders, AMCs, and borrowers when appropriate

• Platform and portal management so appraisers work from one organized workflow

Appraisers complete the appraisal. IVG manages the systems, coordination, and administrative workload—allowing appraisers to focus on quality, compliance, and efficiency.

Responsibilities (Both Options)

• Complete residential appraisal assignments in compliance with USPAP and client guidelines

• Perform property inspections, measurements, and data verification

• Develop credible, well-supported opinions of value

• Maintain timely communication with IVG support staff and leadership

• Meet reasonable turn times while maintaining quality standards

• Interact professionally with homeowners, agents, and lender partners

Requirements

• Active Certified Residential Appraiser license in good standing

• Current E&O insurance meeting lender requirements

• Strong USPAP compliance history and attention to quality

• Ability to complete assignments independently and professionally

• Familiarity with UAD-compliant reports and common appraisal software

• Reliable communication and responsiveness

• Professional demeanor and attention to detail

• Reliable transportation and inspection tools

• Willingness to complete IVG onboarding and panel setup
