Their orders take precedence over all others. Their analysts are knowledgeable and respectful— they understand the complexities of completing the more complex BPO assignments." –Jim Snook – REO expert for over 30 years Broker Associate, Dallas Real Estate – Flagstaff, AZ Completed first BPO assignment for Asset Val in 1995 CORPORATE DETAILS: 805 N. Crest Drive, Grand Junction, Colorado 81506 | AssetVal.com CORPORATE PROFILE: Asset Valuation & Marketing (Asset Val) provides a full range of services and solutions to the valuations industry. While many facets of the industry have changed since the company's launch in 1995, Asset Val has continuously strived to improve its offerings to provide high-quality, dependable, responsive, scalable, and fully customizable solutions. AVM's business culture is "a blend of experience, teamwork, innovation, and proven results." COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE: Experience, Innovation, Quality, and Customer Service are our defining characteristics. We believe no two customers are alike. Asset Val recognizes that each customer has their own unique needs and challenges. We listen to each individual client's needs, then work side-by-side with the client to define exactly what is required to fully satisfy their expectations. Our solutions are completely customizable. KEYS TO SUCCESS: More than any other factor, BPO quality is dependent on the quality of your Realtor panel. Asset Val has cultivated our network of Real Estate Professional Partners (REPPs) for almost 20 years; thousands of our Realtors have been with us for well over a decade. Our focus on recruiting, training, educating and retaining quality Realtors allows us to better facilitate the valuation process. New Realtors must undergo a three step process in order to be placed in our panel: 1. Thorough application review process along with license validation 2. All new REPPs must attend a (free) training webinar so they completely understand our expectations 3. The first 10 BPOs completed by new REPPs receive extra scrutiny and feedback/training A quality BPO starts with a quality Realtor; Asset Val's assignment process has been carefully designed to maximize BPO quality. The company prides itself on "NO broadcasting of orders." We select the highest rated Realtor in closest proximity to the subject property when assigning orders. The final key to success is a high quality analysis. Every report submitted to our clients has received a hands-on review from one of our highly trained staff of Analysts. BUSINESS LINES/SERVICES OR SOLUTIONS OFFERED: Residential Products » Broker Price Opinion (BPO) – multiple products & formats » Automated Valuation Models » Property Condition Reports » Rental Data Reports Commercial Products » Broker Opinion of Value (BOV) » Market Approach Only » Market & Income Approach » Vacant Land » Property Condition Reports 2015 STRATEGY: Asset Val has set three main goals for 2014–2015 - 1 Compliance: In this age of oversight, it will take all measures necessary to ensure the company's clients are protected. Through both internal and external security assessment audits including a SOC 2 audit, Asset Val has the documentation you need to demonstrate vendor management compliance. 2 Quality Control: Using the company's 19 years experience in this industry, it has dissected its already strong quality control process and rebuilt it from the ground up. From a more intuitive and dynamic vendor validation module to how this information is conveyed to the client, the company is taking quality assurance to a new level. 3 Product Development: Due to be released in September, the company's new suite of valuation products will be the most data-rich reports on the market today.

The success of the REO process is heavily dependent on the quality of the independent BPOs. We have worked with a number of BPO providers and found that Asset Val consistently delivers a higher- quality product. From my observation, this is primarily due to their focus on quality control and their ability to customize their reports to accommodate our clients' needs. The team at Asset Val provides quality valuation services and consistently high levels of customer service." –Clay Lehman, President, Resolute Asset Management Nationwide plus Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands Grand Junction, Colorado Corporate Headquarters
