Valuation Partners, a national appraisal management company with experienced independent fee appraisers in all 50 states, announced its services have been integrated into LendingQB, an innovative web-based loan origination system (LOS) for mortgage lenders, the companies announced in a release.
The bidirectional integration enables lenders to order, track and receive appraisal reports and communicate in real time with Valuation Partners all from within the LendingQB platform, saving time and creating greater efficiency. Valuation Partners is the first AMC integrated into the LendingQB platform that enables real-time communication during the appraisal process.
In addition to accessing appraisal services, LendingQB users will be able to communicate directly with Valuation Partners’ account representatives without having to leave the LendingQB platform. This unique capability provides lenders with greater control over the appraisal process and enables LendingQB users to request and receive immediate updates on the status of their appraisal orders, which minimizes potential delays, the release said.
“LendingQB shares our view that the appraisal process needs to be simpler and more efficient, so this integration was a perfect fit,” Valuation Partners President and CEO Bill Fall said in the release. “We are delighted to be the first AMC with these additional capabilities on the LendingQB platform, which has earned high marks among lenders for its effectiveness and positive user experiences.”
“Integrating Valuation Partners’ products and services into our platform while enabling bidirectional communication will generate enormous value for our clients,” LendingQB President Tim Nguyen said. “We are particularly impressed by the company’s proprietary purchase appraisal process, which ensures every appraisal is tracked to avoid delays and undergoes an accelerated quality review. This integration will make it much easier for our clients to manage the appraisal process.”
