Entry Level Certified General Appraiser Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level certified general appraiser job?
Start by completing your state's required coursework and securing your trainee or associate license, since most entry level roles expect candidates to be licensed or actively working toward licensure. Internship experience with a commercial appraisal firm, a portfolio of supervised reports, and familiarity with appraisal software like ARGUS or CoStar give junior candidates a clear edge over applicants who rely on coursework alone.
Which companies hire entry level certified general appraisers?
Companies hiring entry level certified general appraisers right now include EXL Service, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from commercial real estate firms, government assessment offices, financial institutions, and regional appraisal practices that bring on junior appraisers to work alongside experienced staff.
Are there remote entry level certified general appraiser jobs?
Yes, though most entry level roles are on-site given the field inspection requirements of commercial appraisal work. About 100% of entry level certified general appraiser openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those positions typically involve report writing, data analysis, or desk review rather than hands-on property inspections.
Are these new grad certified general appraiser jobs?
Yes, the listings on this page include new grad, recent graduate, and junior certified general appraiser roles. A posting is typically new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or trainee hours in place of full professional experience, or invites candidates who are actively pursuing their certified general license rather than already holding it.
Which industries hire the most entry level certified general appraisers?
Entry Level certified general appraiser roles concentrate in Technology & Software and Consulting & Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at the junior level because they handle high volumes of commercial property transactions, government assessments, or lending decisions that require trained appraisers to support senior staff on valuations and report preparation.
