DartAppraisal.com Confident in Preparation for United Appraisal Dataset (UAD) Compliance

TROY, MI--(Marketwire - Aug 30, 2011) - DartAppraisal.com announces its full coordination of efforts in compliance of the Uniform Appraisal Dataset (UAD). To properly manage such appraisals (1004 URAR, 1075 Condo, 2055, and 1075 reports with an effective date of 9/1/11 or later), comprehensive infrastructure updates are required. Specific enhancements made to DartAppraisal.com's exclusive technology and data structure guarantee that appraisal reports adhere to UAD regulations. Modifications have been made in the areas of file processing and Quality Control practices to align with these new standards.

Successfully maintaining an appraiser panel of over 10,000 individuals demands a robust technological platform and highly trained, process-driven staff. DartAppraisal.com has built on this success by enhancing their existing proprietary management system and process documentation to fully adhere to UAD standards. In addition, the staff has been carefully trained in the comprehension and implementation of these guidelines in relation to appraisal reports. Key to meeting this new requirement is our Quality Control Department, who performs a manual review on each appraisal to ensure compliance to report data.

DartAppraisal.com continues to test and investigate technological advances to facilitate future compliance with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loan requirements, including XML delivery with an embedded PDF through the Uniform Collateral Data Portal (UCDP).

Michael Dresden, Director of Operations, has full confidence in the company's preparedness: "Our corporate culture is designed around consistent processes and uniform messaging in appraisal management, so we fully comprehend the standardized responses required by UAD."
