Valuation Link, an appraisal management company providing residential and commercial appraisals and valuation products nationwide, recently announced the promotion of Robert Stackhouse to CEO.
Prior to his promotion, Stackhouse was the chief operating officer (COO) at Valuation Link.
Stackhouse has more than 20 years of experience in the real estate industry. He is a certified appraiser who also ran the corporate operations at a national appraisal firm for years before taking the reins at Valuation Link.
As COO, Robert was able to take Valuation Link from its infancy to a top 30 AMC.
“The excitement surrounding the opportunities in front of us outweighs everything we have accomplished,” Stackhouse said.
Stackhouse was also an integral part in the creation and the launch of the new Valuation Link Desktop Appraisal Report. The Valuation Link Desktop Appraisal Report is performed by a local licensed or certified appraiser and incorporates a current property inspection report with photos that addresses the subject and market conditions. The Valuation Link Desktop Appraisal Report was developed to be less expensive and offer quicker turn times than traditional appraisals.
The report is developed for home equity, default and portfolio/servicing loans because of its compliance with USPAP and the Interagency Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines.
“Valuation Link saw a need in the lending space for an accurate, compliant and affordable gap product for certain areas of lending,” Stackhouse said. “Along with other industry counterparts, we were able to develop this new desktop appraisal product.”
