This is an opportunity to enhance your expertise with high-impact projects that require thorough, narrative-driven analysis and applied problem-solving skills.

The Real Property Appraiser’s accountabilities include, but are not limited to:
- Valuations, including loss of use studies for historical land claims.
- Corridor and right-of-way valuations and damage assessments.
- Preparing detailed, written reports on value.
- Providing estimates on damages based on Federal and/or Provincial Expropriation legislation.
- Negotiating various types of land acquisition agreements with private landowners and special interest groups.
Required education/skills/attributes include:
- Appraisal Institute of Canada Member in good standing with an AACI designation or Candidate Member in good standing.
- Post-secondary degree in a related field.
- General understanding of urban fringe and agricultural lands and associated factors in determining value.
- Property Agent roles with willingness to obtain a Land Agent License.
- Exceptional communication and organizational skills.
- Proficient researching skills.
- The ability to problem-solve by thinking analytically and applying logic.
- Able to work independently, methodically, apply first principles, and meet deadlines.
- Demonstrated professional maturity and diplomacy.
Additional attributes:
- Complementary professional designations (e.g., professional agrologist, forester, etc.).
- Expert witness experience or interest in appearing as an expert witness.
- In-depth experience in writing narrative appraisal reports for litigation/tribunal purposes.
- Candidate AIC members with commensurate experience will be considered.
This position requires travel for property inspection, primarily across Western Canada, as required. Applicants must possess a valid Class 5 Driver’s License with a Driver’s Abstract that will meet our insurance requirements.
