Appraisal
Technology
1st America RES
is a technology
driven company. I've been utilizing digital photography, GIS
Mapping, legal
size scanning and
electronic appraisal delivery since 1995. I have the ability to
provide professional high quality appraisal reports quickly and
publish them with
Adobe
Pdf or converting the files to a Lighthouse format. I've added computerized flood maps and location maps to our
appraisals. There's no more need for stacks of FEMA flood maps
or second party mapping software. It's really pretty
cool, takes only a couple minutes and is very accurate. Except
for a hard copy kept in the appraiser work files, almost all appraisals
are made and quickly sent electronically with the assistance of
local broadband ISP computer service.
Several different methods are available for the appraiser to
reconcile the Sales Comparison Approach. Instead of aiming or
guessing, I prefer to use Realtors Property Resource (RPR) or an Excel
file . You must have an
Excel program to view this file. (Press Cancel if you get a popup
notice)
Download a free Excel Viewer Here if you don't.. I use this file to calculate a weighted value based on
the Comps' Sales Prices, their Net%, and their Net Adjusted Sales
Prices. Then, depending on the appraisal, number available
Comps, etc. I may or may not give the weighted value major
consideration during reconciliation.
