ValuePoint 4 Default

Benefits

Cost, speed and accuracy are critical to evaluating potential mortgage defaults and deciding between forbearance and foreclosure. Recognizing that a significant percentage of delinquent loans may ultimately cure, expenses tied to valuations are seldom recovered, resulting in lost profits for lenders. ValuePoint 4 Default is an advanced and affordable analytical tool that instantly delivers solid disposition value and decision making information to your desk.

Accounting for Intangibles 

First American CoreLogic’s new valuation tool, ValuePoint 4 Default, is a hybrid model that compensates for traditional automated model valuation limitations, delivering fast, affordable and highly reliable valuations on properties with delinquent or defaulted mortgages. It is especially suited for servicers seeking more accurate loan-to-value ratios within the critical first three months of delinquency. ValuePoint 4 Default assumes probable and predictable deficiencies normally associated with distressed properties - both property specific and key neighborhood dynamics - that more conventional approaches may miss. Homes may be in less than average condition, purported improvements may not exist, and there may be external, negative factors contributing to the delinquency or default. Logic built into ValuePoint 4 Default tempers distressed property analysis, consistently delivering conservative, realistic and reliable valuations. Its performance is enabled through index, assessment and neural-net methodologies, as well as proprietary reconciliation procedures.

Additional Benefits

• Affordable, fast disposition valuation tool to streamline workflow 
• Proven accuracy over traditional AVMs
• More thorough property evaluation through detailed data report
• Capability to evaluate more loans sooner, without increasing current budgets 
• Foundation to validate and compare BPO provider accuracy

Valuation Accuracy Is Paramount 

The key objective of any valuation model is accuracy. In a study comparing ValuePoint 4 Default to a conventional AVM, ValuePoint 4 Default delivered vastly superior results on more than 20,000 real estate owned (REO) properties. ValuePoint 4 Default overestimated REO sale price by just 3.6 percent, compared to 32.4 percent for the conventional AVM.

When tested against BPO, using a sample of more than 800 REO sales, ValuePoint 4 Default came within 10 percent of the actual sale price on on a comparable percentage of the sample.

Accuracy, low cost and quick turnaround times make ValuePoint 4 Default an essential workflow tool for early-stage delinquency valuations, and provide a foundation for ensuring accuracy of BPOs.

Data-Rich Reports Guide Workflow own Decisions 

ValuePoint 4 Default results are delivered as an easy-to-use report available via Web-based HTML, XML or bulk processing. Reports offer more than a disposition value and value range; they provide a lender with key data about the surrounding neighborhood and likelihood of continuous delinquencies in the zip code. Drawing from the best in-class data and analytics from First American CoreLogic and LoanPerformance, ValuePoint 4 Default reports guide workflow decisions and enhance valuation determination. ValuePoint 4 Default reports provide recent sales data, comparable distressed and foreclosed subject and nearby property details, street and aerial maps and trends on 12-month prices changes and sales activity.

An optional on-site property inspection and verification report provides key visual and condition confirmation, including five property and nearby influence photos.
