AI-assisted appraisal report audits,
built for the appraisal industry.

Private by design. Upload a report, get the findings back, and nothing is left behind. We handle the AI, the security, and your firm’s own voice, so there is nothing to build or maintain. You bring the report.

Appraisal Report Audit is not an appraisal review and does not comply with professional appraisal standards. It is not intended to. The user is responsible for any decision or work product that relies on the tool’s output.

Access is invite-only during the beta.

What you get

Made for the appraisal world, run by appraisers.

Whether you are an appraiser auditing your own report before delivery, or a bank, regulator, or counsel auditing a third-party one, it is shaped around how appraisal work actually gets done: rules Edge appraisers wrote, the right regulatory handbook for each report, and plain-language findings you can verify against the page. Here are four things that come standard.

Sounds like your firm, not a generic tool

When we set up your account we ingest a few of your firm’s prior reports. Every finding the tool surfaces is phrased the way your firm would phrase it. You can stack additional voice layers on top (a reviewer’s tone, a client-specific tone) without overwriting the firm voice underneath.

A checklist Edge wrote, not the AI’s best guess

The audit follows a checklist Edge built across a decade of human-led appraisal review work: math reconciliation, internal-consistency rules, completeness checks, support-quality flags. The AI runs the checklist for you. The checklist itself is human-authored.

Your reports stay yours

Reports you upload aren’t used to train any AI model, and the AI providers don’t keep them after an audit runs (zero data retention). Each firm’s data is isolated from every other firm’s. Encryption in transit and at rest, a 90-day window on processing files, and a published list of every vendor we touch. The data posture lender work expects.

Every finding tells you where it came from

Every issue the tool surfaces leads with a one-sentence summary in plain appraiser English, then points at the exact page in your PDF it came from. You verify, edit, or dismiss it in seconds. The appraiser stays in charge of every call.

Product lines

Four ways Edge auditing shows up.

The same algorithmic foundation, deployed against four very different workflows. Residential and commercial are both live in beta today, accepting invited testers. Bank QC and custom deployments are in active development; join the interest list for the ones that fit your work.

Residential

Active beta testing

Residential appraisal auditing

AI-assisted self-audit for residential appraisers before delivery.
Custom voice trained on your firm’s prior reports so output reads like your own work; layered overlays let admins, individual reviewers, and per-client tone all stack on top of the firm voice.
Catches arithmetic, comparability, internal-consistency, and supporting-data issues fast. Each finding leads with a plain-language headline and cites its source page.
Agency-aware: references the right handbook automatically for VA (VA Pamphlet 26-7), FHA (HUD 4000.1), and conventional (Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac) reports.
PDF uploads supported. Findings live in the portal; Word export available on request.

Commercial

Active beta testing

Commercial appraisal auditing

Same AI-assisted self-audit, tuned for narrative commercial reports.
Audit follows a commercial-specific rule set — invisible-support flag for unsupported cap rates, NOI reconciliation, scope-of-work and HBU completeness, cross-grid consistency between sales and rent comparables.
Property-type-aware: office, industrial, retail, multi-family, hotel, vacant land, subdivision, gas station, car dealership, daycare, house of worship, and special-purpose voices.
PDF supported. Findings live in the portal; Word export available on request.

Behind every finding

Four things go into the audit. None of them are guesses.

Modern AI can read a fifty-page appraisal in seconds and pattern-match against documents it has seen during training. That isn’t what this is. The findings the audit returns come from three specific sources Edge appraisers build and maintain by hand.

The checklist

Edge appraisers wrote and maintain the audit checklist: math reconciliation, internal-consistency rules, completeness checks, support-quality flags. Curated from a decade of human-led appraisal review work. When standards change we update the checklist. The AI doesn’t get to make those calls on its own.

The regulatory handbooks

For VA reports the audit references the current VA Pamphlet 26-7. For FHA, HUD 4000.1. For conventional, the relevant chapters of Fannie Mae’s and Freddie Mac’s selling guides. New handbooks and bulletins are added as customers ask for them, and each one is reviewed by an Edge admin before it goes live in the audit.

Your firm’s voice

During onboarding we ingest a few of your prior reports and build a voice profile. Every finding the audit phrases comes back in your firm’s voice, not generic AI English. The voice profile is set up by an Edge appraiser during onboarding, not an automatic upload-and-go.

A built-in cross-check

Before any finding reaches you, a separate AI model reads your report again and cross-checks each finding’s factual claims against what’s actually on the page. Claims the report doesn’t support get dropped. Findings that flag something real but include a detail that couldn’t be confirmed carry a “partial cross-check” flag with the specific item called out.

The AI does the reading. The framework it reads against is human-built and human-maintained. And before you see anything, the AI’s work gets checked against your report a second time.

About

Edge Realty Advisors.

Before AI, we were programming algorithms that allowed us to facilitate appraisal review assignments on a large scale. Tens of thousands of appraisals have been run through our algorithms over the past decade.

AI now lets us deliver that same work in a much more efficient manner. We wrap these tools alongside the proven methods we have been using in high-stakes environments for more than ten years.

We employ those tools so that anybody can use them, and we customize them around the end-use case. The product on this page is one such deployment. Others are on the way.

Frequently asked

Questions we hear before you sign up.

What does Appraisal Report Audit do?

An AI-assisted self-audit for appraisal reports. Upload a PDF and the tool returns a structured list of findings: arithmetic checks, comparability flags, missing-disclosure prompts, internal-consistency issues, support-quality gaps. Each finding leads with a one-sentence headline and cites the page it came from. The credentialed appraiser using the tool decides what to act on.

Is this an appraisal review?

No. The output is not an appraisal review and does not comply with professional appraisal standards. It is not intended to. The credentialed appraiser using the tool remains solely responsible for any decision or work product that incorporates the output.

Who is it for?

Two audiences. Appraisers running a self-check before delivery, so they can catch and fix issues themselves. And users of appraisal services (banks, regulators, counsel, others) who audit third-party reports as part of their own internal process.

What's the difference between residential and commercial?

Different rule sets, different report structures, different voices. Residential is form-based (the URAR family and its siblings). Commercial is narrative and varies by firm. We bifurcate the audit so a commercial property does not get residential prompts and vice versa. Firms can be set up for residential, commercial, or both. Commercial reports also pick up property-type-aware rules (office, industrial, retail, multi-family, hotel, vacant land, subdivision, and several specialty sub-types).

How does the "voice" work?

At signup we ingest a few of your firm’s prior reports to learn your house style. Findings come back phrased the way your firm would phrase them, not in generic AI English. You can also add quick voice notes any time: short rules that take effect on your next audit without rebuilding the whole profile. Notes can be firm-wide (set by an admin) or just your own personal tweaks.

What happens to my reports? Are they used to train the AI?

No. AI processing runs through a gateway configured for zero data retention, so the AI providers do not train on your report and do not keep it after the audit returns its result. On our side you get per-tenant isolation, encryption in transit and at rest, a 90-day window on processing artifacts, and a published subprocessor list. See the Privacy Policy and Subprocessors pages for specifics.

What is "zero data retention," and why does it matter?

It means the AI that reads your report does not keep a copy. Requests route through a gateway configured so the model providers process your report, return the findings, and retain nothing afterward, and never use it for training. For an appraiser, that is one less thing to think about. For bank, lender, and regulated work, it is the kind of data handling a compliance team usually asks about before approving a new tool. We treat it as a sensible baseline for this kind of work, not a magic guarantee: your own files still live in your portal under the controls described in our Privacy Policy.

What about professional standards compliance?

Output is labeled “LLM PROCESSING: NOT AN APPRAISAL REVIEW” and we do not claim professional-standards compliance. The tool surfaces findings; the appraiser using it makes every judgment call. We intentionally do not name specific standards on our public surface because we are not asking the appraiser to defer to the model on those questions.

How does it handle math errors?

When the tool spots a number that does not reconcile (adjustment sums, cap rate math, NOI extraction, gross/net adjustment percentages), the finding leads with a headline that names both the wrong number and the right number, shows the per-line derivation as bullets, and frames the action as “Revise the report” rather than a paragraph of suggested commentary. Math findings get a different action label than missing-narrative findings because the remedy is different.

Can I share findings with a teammate or back to the appraiser?

Yes. The completed-audit page has a Personal / Reviewing mode toggle. In Reviewing mode each finding gains Accept / Edit / Dismiss rating buttons; once you have rated at least one, “Send for revision” routes your selections to a teammate inside your firm via the in-portal flow. They get an email link to a portal view of exactly what you marked. Personal mode hides the rating buttons so the page reads as a clean punch list.

What if the report gets revised?

After the appraiser fixes the flagged issues, upload the corrected report and run an optional second pass. It re-checks the original findings and shows you what was actually fixed, what still needs attention, and any new issues the revision introduced. Anything you dismissed is skipped, and a second pass costs half a normal run.

What does the output look like?

Findings live in the portal grouped by report section, in the same top-to-bottom order the report uses (Subject, Neighborhood, Market Analysis, Highest and Best Use, Improvements, and so on for residential; the report’s own section labels for commercial). Each finding has a bold headline, what was observed, why it matters, a suggested fix, and a citation. Word document export is available for cases where you need to attach the findings to a delivery package.
