Innovative Approach to Collateral Valuation
Digital Risk Valuation Solutions provides services to help minimize appraisal risk through a tailored sample approach. Our technology compares product data to public records in order to identify red flag alerts. The appraisal data analytics provide a flexible solution, allowing user defined rules for variances in range and adjustment, chronological sales history and loan purpose-driven keyword elements (e.g. refinancing comments such as “sale, listing, etc.”).
Digital Risk also analyzes the relevance of sales comparables used in the appraisal. Overlooked comparables and recent sales are identified and added, dated sales in a declining market and comparables with superior attributes (e.g. view, design, age, etc.) are excluded and the subject and comparables’ physical attributes are checked for accuracy.
Digital Risk provides a comprehensive suite of valuation solutions for both performing and non-performing assets in addition to a full line of internal and external AMC vendor management solutions. Licensed and certified in-house appraisers have rich experience in origination, multi-family, repurchase and due diligence. They review each applicable valuation data element to provide red flag indicators for areas requiring immediate attention and resolution through Digital Risk’s proprietary ValuationIQ platform.
