(EMAILWIRE.COM, July 20, 2011 ) Boca Raton, FL -- When you need an appraisal, time is often critical. Kirchmeyer & Associates has focused on the appraisal business since 1994. As the largest appraisal firm in New York State, they know their business, including all lending regulations and USPAP compliance. They put that knowledge to work to meet clientsÂ’ needs in the most efficient manner saving time and money.
Their operations are fully computerized, utilizing ACI Collection as their primary appraisal software. ACI is compliant with Fannie MaeÂ’s Mortgage Links and Freddy MacÂ’s Goldworks software. Appraisals are provided in digital format and can be sent via e-mail or EDI. Their on-line status program provides 24-hour Internet access to status reports, so you can determine the status of your appraisal at any time in the process.
Kirchmeyer & Associates also provides flood services, including Life-either electronically or overnight. Quality and turnaround times are tracked and recorded constantly. Poor performing appraisers are quickly and easily removed from our approval list. If we have to ask our appraisers to explain their thought process or point out a missed adjustment, the product is delayed and the cost of doing business increases for both our client and us. The high performing appraisers are rewarded with additional volume and an increased fee split. We pay our subcontractors more than the typical AMC and guarantee payment on their work within 30 days, which allows us to hire and retain the best appraisers in the business.
Thomas Kirchmeyer, SRA is President of Kirchmeyer & Associates and is presently managing Kirchmeyer National. Tom has been appraising since 1986 and has attained the highest and most respected residential appraisal designation available in the industry – the SRA (Senior Residential Appraiser) designation with the Appraisal Institute. This allows Kirchmeyer National to tap into the vast library and resources of the largest appraisal organization in the world. Communication between appraisers is essential in regards to complying with standards and ethics. Questions on ever-changing appraisal issues can be answered within minutes via the Appraisal Institute Forum on the Internet and thousands of appraiser members across the country. Just because we’re based in Buffalo, New York doesn’t mean we know nothing about Buffalo, Wyoming!
Kirchmeyer-trained underwriters review all appraisals. Any important issues regarding repairs and values are addressed throughout the appraisal process. If an appraisal needs to be revised or questions from the lender need addressing, we have our appraisers make the appropriate changes and e-mail the revised appraisal to us ASAP. All appraisals are in digital format and can be sent via e-mail or EDI in the lender-preferred format in a matter of seconds.
At Kirchmeyer National, we know that quality and service levels drive many of the decisions lenders make regarding the use of appraisal vendors. The level of service and quality of product must continue to improve in order for us to retain our clientÂ’s faith and satisfaction in our company.
