Appraisal Scribe Update: What You Need to Know

Updated: 2 days ago

We are dedicated to enhancing our product, and many of our most significant improvements are inspired by feedback from our subscribers. Our newest feature tackles the complex realm of appraisal and the constantly evolving needs of appraisers.


Incorporate multiple types of value in a report


Typically, appraisers use just one type of value per report, but certain situations call for multiple types of value. One example is a damage and loss claim appraisal report. In such cases, an appraiser might need to determine the Fair Market Value of a property before damage, the current Fair Market Value of the damaged property, and the Fair Market Value after restoration. Another instance where multiple values are necessary is when an auction house specialist or an appraiser acting as a sales advisor provides low and high estimates, along with a reserve price, for properties that might be auctioned.


To use this feature:

Step 1: Go to "Appraisal Settings" and toggle on "Allow up to 3 Types of Value,"

Appraisal Settings

Step 2: Go to "Definitions," click on "Type of Value," and then "+Create Type of Value"
