What can a CVR be used for?

CVRs can be used for any valuation service except for refinance and loan origination.  Refinance and loan origination are governed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and their approved forms are required for that type of appraisal work.  Appraisers use the CVR for their alternative valuations. Here are some examples to illustrate the many uses of the CVR.

• Bail Bondsmen
• Estate work
• Divorce disputes
• Tax assessment challenges for the tax assessor and/or home owners
• Forensic appraisals
• Legal work
• Pre-listing evaluation

How is a CVR prepared?

A CVR is prepared in the office using a variety of online data sources such as the local MLS, public records, flood data, census data, and aerial pictography.  If requested by the client, an exterior drive-by inspection of the subject, or a full interior/exterior inspection can be performed for an additional fee. 

How much does it cost?

To introduce this new service to our area we are offering the basic CVR for only $100.00.

For a CVR with an exterior drive-by inspection of the subject the fee is $150.00. 

For a CVR with an interior/exterior inspection of the subject the fee is $200.00.

Benefits to the Lender Community

What makes the CVR superior to other reports? Quite simply, it is a better report in every way. A CVR is built on the most robust data, including public record, MLS, sales, listings, flood maps, location maps, aerial imagery, market statistics, graphs, charts and appraiser-driven regression modeling at the neighborhood level. No other report delivers all of the features of a CVR.

Is the CVR appropriate for review work? Yes. CompCruncher is perfectly suited as a lender review tool. It provides support for adjustments to sales; the most appropriate sales; a ranking and scoring of all sales within a market so that you can look at the sales that were used by the appraiser and determine if they were appropriate. You can easily use the CVR to evaluate sales with the most powerful data available to any lender in the market.
