Valuation Methods Optimize Accuracy and Coverage
ValueSmart uses four separate models plus DataQuick's own housing price index:
- Hedonic Model values properties based on property characteristics by region.
- Repeat Sales Index updates the market value of a subject property using historical sales activity.
- Tax-Assessed Value is derived from assessor valuations and sales ratio studies of the tax assessments. Adjusts for the differences between tax assessed and market value, calculated at the jurisdiction level.
- Appraisal Emulation, based on sales comparables, works like an appraiser to provide a property valuation.
- DataQuick's Neighborhood Level HPI utilizes unique methods to achieve highly refined trending for home prices at the ZIP 6 level. DataQuick's neighborhood level HPI is updated monthly and provides forecasting.
