Our Privacy Policy
As a real estate appraisal company we often share nonpublic information, with other appraisers and related entities. "Nonpublic Personal Information", or NPI, such as income data, financing terms, and other information not normally found in public records are examples of this kind of data. Because appraisers must exercise due diligence in arriving at an estimated value, the purpose of an appraisal, we need to obtain the best information possible, and some of this data may be viewed as NPI. If you do not want us to share any such information, you may choose to "opt out" of this potential data sharing.
Please be advised that we do not release NPI to any entity or person that would not normally have a need to know this information. Additionally, we have safeguards protecting this information. However, our ability to restrict the information in an appraisal is limited. In the real estate lending industry, real estate appraisals are widely distributed to mortgage underwriters, review appraisers, loan officers, loan processors, and others in the loan process. If the appraisal is part of a court case or subject to review by state licensing authorities then it may become public record and available under applicable law. The appraisal work file contains all information regarding the property and appraisal data. That information is considered private is not made available to others, except as previously disclosed.
