SELECT™ is the breakthrough searching tool that enables you to quickly find the right appraiser with the right qualifications for the right assignment. Know your vendors. It is really that simple.
Geographic Competence has been a hot button issue for some time. Does close proximity of an appraiser’s home or office ensure geographic competence? Of course not. We give you all the data you need to make the right decisions about appraiser selection. Cool mapping tools overlaid with robust data allow you to drill down and select the best appraiser for the assignment.
Fee Surveys… we have you covered. Every registered appraiser enters their fees in their profile.
Panel Management has been an overlooked yet vital process for too long. Policies and Procedures regarding exclusionary list management should be clearly posted to your fee panel. A rebuttal process should allow the appraiser due process. Engagement letters can be signed and stored in each appraiser’s record. Fee panel management can be confidently managed with just a few clicks.
We’ve aggregated the disciplinary actions and legal proceedings from State Appraisal Boards, public databases and associations. We’ve also enabled optional sharing of censures across lender platforms. Avoid risk by side stepping “bad actors”. We ping the ASC database to monitor license status in real time. In some instances we are ahead of ASC notices because we go directly to each State.
Mandatory Complaints to State Regulators hold promise to be a giant hairball. We've simplified the process by creating a matrix of commonly found appraisal deficiencies. Let us standardize the process and route complaints to the right agencies.
Lenders have compliance challenges under the new regulatory regime. They are complicated. But not impossible! We’ve created a searchable database of every appraisal regulation, policy and guideline.
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.
