Dart Appraisal Now Supports Fannie Mae's Innovative Property Data Service

Dart Appraisal, a leading appraisal management company, has announced its capability to fulfill Fannie Mae's property data collection orders, positioning itself among a select group of AMCs. This service, known as Value Acceptance + Property Data, aims to expand appraisal waiver benefits to more borrowers while accurately assessing property conditions.

Fannie Mae highlights several advantages of this program for lenders, notably reducing origination time and costs for borrowers, promoting financial safety by ensuring current property observations, and offering operational simplicity. Fannie Mae's data reveals that appraisal waivers helped borrowers save around $2.1 billion between 2020 and 2022, offering some financial relief amid rising rates and high home prices.

While Dart Appraisal champions the accuracy of property valuations through licensed appraisers, it recognizes that full appraisals might not always be feasible or required due to cost or specific circumstances. Dart invites lenders to explore alternative valuation methods that could potentially save money for borrowers. Dart is open for discussions to help lenders determine eligibility for this program and select the most suitable valuation method.
