CONVENTUS MISSION AND VISION

Conventus Holdings Corporation was envisioned and created to reduce the number of economic intermediaries involved in the origination, funding and investment in the $125 billion real estate bridge loan marketplace. True to the Latin origin of the company’s name, “to bring together,” CHC’s existence and strength is anchored to a business model that removes unnecessary economic intermediates so that it can provide superior pricing and service to its clients. Our competitive edge in executing our mission is assembling, nurturing, and developing a collaborative group of talented individuals. To that end, diversity of experiences, perspectives, skills, and cultures is core to our mission and team.

POSITION

Full-Time, Salaried, Performance-based bonus Required 4 days per week in the office (Mon-Thu). Please do not apply if this does not align with you. As an AVP/VP, Senior Collateral Underwriter at Conventus, you will be instrumental in driving smart, risk-conscious lending decisions through thoughtful valuation analysis. You will evaluate real estate collateral across a variety of asset classes and markets, helping our team structure loans that balance borrower opportunity and risk mitigation. This role provides an opportunity to be a key member of a fast-paced private lending company, providing capital for real estate investors nationwide.

RESPONSIBILITIES

What You’ll Do Perform internal valuations on a wide range of real estate assets across the U.S.—including SFRs, condos, townhomes, land, and multifamily/mixed-use properties—with a focus on transitional assets. Review and assess third-party appraisals, applying a practical, market-based lens to confirm or challenge value conclusions, particularly for unique and non-stabilized properties. Collaborate closely with our Credit team to develop thoughtful loan structures informed by project risk, asset quality, and market dynamics. Evaluate borrower development plans, scopes of work, architectural drawings, and site plans to assess feasibility and alignment with projected valuations. Initiate and manage appraisal challenges when valuations diverge from internal expectations or market support, especially in nuanced or high-leverage transactions. Communicate valuation perspectives clearly to both internal teams and, when appropriate, borrowers—supporting transparency and trust in the lending process. Develop and maintain valuation summaries that highlight both project strengths and potential value risks, forming a key part of the credit package. Analyze key market drivers, comp data, and neighborhood trends to support asset-level underwriting decisions. Provide timely updates and documentation that support efficient loan processing and internal reporting. Contribute market insights and valuation perspectives to help identify opportunities and risks in new and existing lending geographies. Work independently in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment where adaptability and decisiveness are valued. Review and mentor peers as needed to ensure consistent underwriting standards and valuation quality.

QUALIFICATIONS

7+ years of experience in appraisal or valuation analysis. Experience working in a banking or lending environment is a plus. Experience in appraising land and subdivision development projects is required. Deep understanding of residential development economics, including land valuation, cost analysis, and land residual modeling. Hands-on experience underwriting loans for construction, bridge, or value-add projects. Ability to interpret and analyze proformas, project budgets, and construction scopes. Bachelor’s degree in real estate, finance, economics, or related field preferred. Strong Excel skills and comfort with valuation tools and modeling. Analytical mindset with excellent judgment and a pragmatic, business-oriented approach to value. Clear communicator who thrives in a collaborative and performance-driven culture. Mindset and Character At CHC, we look for future employees who demonstrate the mindset and character of our following core values: Deliver Extraordinary Client Experience: Demonstrate unwavering responsiveness and dedication to delighting clients at every touchpoint.
