A new tool called RECRUIT, which connects qualified
appraisers for Clearbox LLC lender and appraisal management companies, now is available.
Clearbox represents a database of every
appraiser in the U.S. and is the most comprehensive source for credentials for
the real estate appraiser profession.
“The addition of RECRUIT was just a natural development,” founder
and CEO Joan Trice said in a news release. “With the upturn in certain markets,
our AMC and lender subscribers were having a difficult time placing orders. They
needed to expand their panel, yet maintain their rigorous vetting process.
RECRUIT connects appraisers to new clients with just one click.”
“RECRUIT is the culmination of a year-long data initiative,”
Clearbox Chief Technology Officer Todd Loomis said. “We simply listened to our
clients. In addition to creating new front-end search tools, we supplemented
data in our API to include full contact information for every available
appraiser. This enables our clients to pull our data into their transaction platforms
through an XML data feed.”
Clearbox RECRUIT enables lenders and AMCs to search for
appraisers and contact them directly through the Clearbox dashboard. RECRUIT
also sends the appraiser an email to notify them that the client is interested
in their services.
