Submitting a real estate appraisal shouldn’t feel like trial and error. Yet for many mortgage lenders, appraisal management companies (AMCs), and appraisers, it often does. Unexpected submission errors can lead to frustrating delays, back-and-forth revisions, and missed deadlines.
The move from Uniform Appraisal Dataset (UAD) 2.6 to UAD 3.6 is the most significant data-standard change the industry has seen in years. With larger file sizes, new data points, and updated compliance rules, there’s a lot for lenders, AMCs, and appraisers to navigate.
That’s why Veros Real Estate Solutions (Veros®) offers Submission Preview, a smart way to catch issues before they disrupt your process. And with Veros’ unmatched expertise as the technology provider behind the Uniform Collateral Data Portal (UCDP®) and Electronic Appraisal Delivery (EAD) for the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), you can be confident that Submission Preview aligns with the government-sponsored enterprises (GSE) and FHA requirements.
