Periodic Reporting for period 1 - XQ AVM (AUTOMATED VALUATION FOR PROPERTY INVESTMENT ANALYSIS)
Periodo di rendicontazione: 2019-07-01 al 2019-12-31
Most important analytical work by valuer is to set appropriate assumptions to financial valuation models. Mistake in these assumptions can make valuer’s market value estimate of the real estate asset being far from reality. It is essential that valuer has all possible high-quality data available when determining the assumption values. In real estate markets, most high-quality data, like current rent amounts, building vacancy levels or transaction cap rates are not publicly available but instead stored within real estate companies’ private databases. This data unavailability-problem adds lot of costs to valuer and makes real estate valuation confidence levels low.
Exquance Software Oy offers a game changing solution: Software platform with a unique valuation and financial modeling calculation engine with breakthrough innovative Exquance Automated Valuation Model (XQ AVM) component as well as a new ecosystem for real estate investors and valuers.

Source valuation data delivery becomes 95% faster than currently. Same ecosystem allows valuers to deliver valuation results in a digital and interactive format back to investor. Valuation results in digital format has not been previously possible. Only pdf and Excel-reports have been traditionally delivered over email but investors desire results digitally these days.
