Inside LiveValuation
PUBLISHER’S NOTES
W elcome inaugural readers of LiveValuation Magazine!
The mission of our publication is to interject innovative ideas into the ongoing valuation conversation. We will focus on the fusion of technology and local professionals to enhance existing methodologies and advance new valuation solutions.
No valuation space will be left unexplored. There are a plethora of valuation products in the marketplace today. AVMs, BPO’s, appraisals, and hybrid products all compete for market share in the valuation arena. Each have their own strengths and weaknesses; the strengths pointed out by their proponents, the weaknesses by their competitors. Despite their differences, frequently all of these products are employed by the same consumer, collateral risk decision-makers. LiveValuation Magazine will not avoid the natural tension between providers of these different products, we want them to engage each other in the pages of our publication. Those involved in collateral risk and other valuation decisions will benefit from the dialogue, and those with divergent opinions can learn from each other.
Let’s get started.
