After last year’s record loan numbers, many mortgage lenders and AMCs felt the crunch that such large volumes can have on their current processes – especially with real estate appraisals.
Though it’s true that appraiser attrition remains a key issue, next-generation valuation management technologies can help bridge the gap, allowing lenders and AMCs to better manage their appraisal workflows through innovative tools and workflow automation that promote a fully digital process.
Remote Inspection Technology:
A next-gen appraisal management software will provide lenders and AMCs with a secure and efficient method for conducting remote real estate inspections via innovative mobile apps, which allow the home occupant to take and submit the required pictures of the subject property from their phone or tablet.
AVMs Provide Alternative Method That’s Proven:
An appraisal management technology should always provide direct access to proven AVM products – such as those from Black Knight® and Collateral Analytics™. These products deliver accurate, timely, and cost-effective property value information, helping to quickly validate or complete appraisal reports.
Configurable Workflow Automation, Forms, and Reporting:
Best practice advises lenders and AMCs to implement a configurable appraisal management technology that automates their unique valuation process – eliminating manual touch points, increasing speed, and more effectively managing compliance. With a couple clicks of the mouse, users can instantly customize the entire system to their exact needs, including its fields, forms, reports, and more.
