About Ard Appraisal Company

Established in 1965, Ard Appraisal Company is a highly respected commercial real estate appraisal firm with a legacy of excellence spanning over six decades. With offices in Clark, NJ and Saratoga Springs, NY, we specialize in valuing simple to complex income-producing and special-use properties for leading banks, healthcare systems, attorneys, and governmental agencies and private clients.

Led by two MAI-designated appraisers, we are deeply committed to professional development, mentorship, and training the next generation of real estate valuation experts.


Why Launch Your Career in Commercial Appraisal?

  • The Best of Both Worlds: Forget being chained to a desk. This role perfectly blends analytical financial modeling and deep-dive market research with dynamic, hands-on fieldwork and property inspections.
  • Incredible Earning & Career Growth: Commercial appraisal is a stable, recession-resistant industry. As you advance and complete your training, you will unlock fee-split earning potential and a clear professional track toward state-recognized licensure.
  • Unmatched Variety: No two days are the same. You will analyze everything from bustling retail centers, special purpose properties, office spaces to proposed multi-family developments.

What You Will Do (Responsibilities)

As a Valuation Analyst, you will work side-by-side with industry veterans to master the commercial valuation process:

  • Field Inspections: Assist with local, on-site interior and exterior inspections of diverse commercial properties.
  • Market Research: Collect and analyze crucial real estate data, including sales, rents, zoning laws, and macroeconomic trends.
  • Financial Modeling: Participate in discounted cash flow (DCF) and financial modeling to evaluate property performance.
  • Report Writing: Support senior appraisers in preparing comprehensive valuation reports, eventually developing the skills to draft report components independently.
  • Master the Methodologies: Learn and apply the three core pillars of valuation: the Income, Cost, and Sales Comparison approaches.

What We Are Looking For (Qualifications)

  • Education: A newly minted Bachelor’s degree (Background in Finance, Economics, Business, Real Estate, Mathematics, or a related field is preferred).
  • Experience: No prior appraisal experience required! We provide dedicated, structured mentorship.
  • Technical Savvy: High proficiency with MS Office (Word and Excel). You should be comfortable navigating spreadsheets and data.
  • Strong Communicator: Exceptional writing and analytical skills are a must. You have a sharp eye for detail and the ability to articulate complex data clearly.
  • Passion: A genuine interest in commercial real estate, financial analysis, or valuation.
  • Mobility: A valid driver’s license and access to a reliable vehicle are required for local site inspections.

Perks & Benefits

  • Mentorship: Direct, daily guidance from MAI-designated appraisers.
  • Paid Education: We invest in you by paying for your appraisal coursework and continuing education.
  • Financial Security: IRA contributions and access to group healthcare.
  • Work-Life Balance: A flexible hybrid schedule once you are up to speed.
