Are You a Manual Typewriter?
[fusion_dropcap boxed=”no” boxed_radius=”” class=”” id=”” color=””]R[/fusion_dropcap]emember in the late 1970’s when we wrote our reports on typewriters with carbon copies and correction ink? We used film and glued photos on report pages.
Twenty years later, most of us were on floppy disks, digital cameras and Microsoft Access. This is how people could increase appraisal office efficiency but it also brought new challenges. Internal networks did not work well for multiple offices trying to share data. There were other inefficiencies, so many of us moved databases to the cloud, which made it easy to link data to Google Maps. There is still room for improvement.
What WILL Increase Appraisal Office Efficiency?
Simplified IT Management
Maintaining multiple versions of various software on employees’ desktops is time-consuming and costly. Computer hardware is expensive, and hardware failures can cripple an appraisal office.
Better Security
Viruses are a never-ending threat. Our clients (especially banks) demand secure communications and methods of storing confidential information. Many banks have network security systems that make it difficult for them to receive large files.
One Fully Cloud Sourced Integrated Database and Report Writing System
Waiting for screens to refresh while data is transferred from the cloud to various desktop applications is inefficient and irritating. Existing report writing systems are difficult to understand and master.
Improved Database Design and Performance
Current appraisal databases do a poor job of tracking properties as they change over time, do not have useful analytics, and don’t have the ability to track trends and data relationships. Some queries take too long.
Up to Date Property Classification System and Data Standards that Fit the Real World
Most appraisal databases have not upgraded to the new Property Use Classification System. Current software forces you into a predetermined box for how data is categorized.
Mobile Capability
No convenient method for capturing photographs, comparable data, and field notes and syncing them to the cloud during or after inspections. Current software ties the appraisal process to one machine.
More Robust GIS Capability
None of the current software allows for robust GIS capability.
Better Presentations of Results
Current reports are static documents that don’t take advantage of new technologies allowing a more interactive and immersive experience. Many reports still look like they were written on a typewriter, but users want a richer digital experience.
Consolidated Management System
Current software does not facilitate an efficient review process or tracking system.
An Efficient, Easy to Use System for Reviewing, Editing, and Archiving Reports and Data
Current systems require multiple software applications to complete this process and are inefficient. We need automated error checking, validation and automatic archive.
