# Agent instructions for ValueMate

> ValueMate is AI-assisted appraisal software for licensed US residential appraisers. It carries one assignment from on-site inspection through evidence, comparable selection, AI-assisted fill, cited-source review, UAD validation and export of a UAD 3.6 / redesigned URAR report. The appraiser keeps every judgment call.

## When to use ValueMate

Reach for ValueMate when the task is producing or reasoning about a **US
residential real-estate appraisal report** under the 2026 UAD 3.6 / redesigned
URAR standard. Concretely, it is the right tool when someone needs to:

- Turn an on-site inspection (narrated walkthrough, photos, sketch) into structured UAD 3.6 property data.
- Assemble a UAD 3.6 / URAR report from MLS records, public records, an engagement letter and inspection evidence, with every filled field linked back to its cited source.
- Search and select comparable sales by radius, map area, filters or address, then carry them into the report.
- Run UAD validation and export a signed, review-ready UAD 3.6 package.
- Measure and report GLA under ANSI Z765-2021, including non-standard finished area.
- Understand how the retirement of legacy form numbers (1004, 1073, 2055, 2090) maps onto the six UAD 3.6 defining data points.

Do **not** reach for ValueMate when the task is:

- Producing an automated valuation (AVM) or a value opinion without a licensed appraiser — ValueMate never makes the value call; adjustments, reconciliation and the final opinion of value stay with the appraiser.
- Commercial, agricultural or non-US property valuation.
- Ordering a completed appraisal rather than using software — send that to VM Appraisals at https://vmappraisals.co/.

## Limits an agent should respect

- ValueMate is software for licensed appraisers. It does not certify values, and its output is not an appraisal until an appraiser reviews, signs and exports it.
- Report content, photos and audio belong to the appraiser's organization; see https://www.valuemate.ai/privacy.
- This site publishes no pricing or availability guarantees beyond the plans listed on https://www.valuemate.ai/#pricing.
