About The Position

Impact Valuation Group (IVG) is expanding nationwide and is seeking Certified Residential Appraisers to help complete its available appraisal orders. The company offers two engagement models: full-time W-2 Staff Appraiser or Independent Appraiser under a membership model. Both options provide consistent order flow, appraisal independence, and centralized administrative support, without sales pressure or client-chasing responsibilities.

The full-time W-2 role is designed for appraisers seeking stability, benefits, and predictable income, with production-based upside. IVG provides monthly orders, support staff for workflow and coordination, and an appraiser-led environment with collaboration and mentorship. Compensation includes a base salary and a production incentive after the monthly quota is achieved. Employee benefits are discussed during the interview process. Progressive membership participation and profit-sharing may be available as volume and tenure grow, along with opportunities in review roles, leadership, and specialty assignments.

The independent membership model is designed for appraisers seeking flexibility and higher per-order earnings while using IVG's centralized infrastructure and order flow. Compensation uses tiered distributions that increase with volume. Members may accept additional orders beyond the minimum as their schedule allows, and eligible members participate in company profit-sharing paid biannually. Higher volume unlocks increased participation in company profits.

Both engagement models involve completing residential appraisal assignments in compliance with USPAP and client guidelines, conducting inspections and verification, developing supported opinions of value, communicating with IVG staff and leadership, meeting reasonable turn times, and interacting professionally with homeowners, agents, and lender partners.
