Home owners often monitor the value of not only their house but other houses in their neighborhood. A decision whether or not now is the time to sell can be based on their perceived value of a house. Real estate web sites can increase the traffic to their site, and especially the amount of time spent on their site, by offering this valuable information to users. Onboard’s AVM (Automated Valuation Model) is a premium valuation tool that clients can utilize to access home values across the country.
Onboard’s AVM takes a very ‘scientific’ approach to valuation. Typical AVM models tend to rely solely on nearby sales in their calculations. Our AVM tool is vastly different. We use over 15,000 separate geographic segments to determine property values. Some other data elements that are included are distressed property trends and volumes, property tax values and trends, repeat sales information and much more. Each property is run through multiple valuation engines as well.
Available Fields
- Value estimate for a given property
