Imagined by Appraisers. The next valuation frontier: Professional Expertise harnessing AI and Appraisal Methodology.

Over 75 years of appraisal experience. Four research tools. Our mission: the best valuations leading to the most business for our users!

What We Believe

Three principles. Every tool. Every time.

Principle 1 — Appraiser methodology, not algorithmic guesswork.
Every comp selection runs through the same parameters appraisers use — distance, GLA, age, date of sale. Not Zillow. Not a guess. Not an AVM black box.

Principle 2 — The data appraisers see, in your hands first.
With the new appraiser UAD 3.6 framework, the appraiser is asked to disclose properties analyzed but not used. Take advantage by making sure your comps and pricing strategy is seen.

Principle 3 — Agents are part of the appraisal process.
Per Fannie Mae AIR FAQ #1, agents are a valuable resource for appraisers. Every tool we build is designed around that principle. Yes, it is OK to provide the appraiser with factual data. 

Brent Jones Founder
Founder Bio

Meet Brent Jones.

Former Fannie Mae Senior Analyst. 30+ years on the appraisal side of the industry.

Brent Jones spent his career inside the appraisal industry — first as a residential appraiser, then as a Senior Analyst at Fannie Mae, where he saw firsthand how often deals were being mispriced before they ever reached the appraiser’s desk.

After watching too many transactions fall apart because agents and loan officers were working with the wrong data, he built the tools that close the gap between what real estate professionals use to price properties and what appraisers actually use to value them.

“Treat the appraisal as another transaction that needs to close”— Brent Jones, Founder
