SELECT™
SELECT is a search tool used by Lenders and AMCs- your clients- to quickly identify the most qualified appraiser for the job. We've created the go-to site for Lenders, and their agents, to locate an experienced local expert.
This central clearinghouse takes advantage of the recent enactment of regulatory reforms. These reforms reinforce the need for Lenders and AMCs to perform more due diligence on the appraisers they engage. That's great news for experienced, ethical appraisers who produce credible appraisal reports.
So register your profile in SELECT™ and crow about your extensive experience, expansive skill set, first rate education, professional affiliations and other credentials. Feel free to refer any of your clients to SELECT™ where your entire “approval package” is maintained.
SELECT™ is a great place to track your continuing education and store your completion certificates.
The cost is $99 annually. The registration process will take about 20 minutes of your time. You must use a credit card in your name.
iGUIDE™
It is difficult to navigate the “road rules” of appraising without a map. Appraisal regulations, policy, and guidelines are complex. We’ve assembled them all in a database that is searchable by keywords. If you need to reference all guidance on “declining markets" for example, iGUIDE™ is your easiest point of reference. Simplify your life.
FEE SURVEY
Within Clearbox® is an area where we allow appraisers to list their fees for specific appraisal products. As this data is updated, we aggregate it to bring our clients real-time and accurate fee survey data that can be used to determine the customary and reasonable fees for a specific market.
AREA 56™
AREA 56™ is a database of all AMC, BPO, and other appraisal legislation at the state level. Why 56 instead of 51? With all states, territories and the District of Columbia there are 56 jurisdictions. No, we don’t intend to imply that anything bizarre might be occurring in this space.
