Who We Are

Appraisal IQ is a purpose-built appraisal intelligence and quality control platform created by Jerad Hunsaker, a Certified Real Estate Appraiser with more than 25 years of hands-on experience in residential appraisal practice and appraisal business operations.

Jerad has spent decades working inside the appraisal profession completing appraisals, managing volume, navigating USPAP compliance, responding to AMC and lender reviews, and adapting to FHA, VA, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac requirements as they evolve. Appraisal IQ was not created by technologists guessing at appraisal workflows.

 It was built by an appraiser who understands:

  • How reviewers actually read reports

  • Where revisions are really triggered

  • How scorecards impact volume and reputation

  • Why clarity and consistency matter more than “better writing”

At its core, Appraisal IQ reflects a simple belief: Technology should strengthen professional judgment, not replace it

Built by Experience

  • How reviewers actually read reports

  • Where revisions are really triggered

  • How scorecards impact volume and reputation

  • Why clarity and consistency matter more than "better writing"

Why It Matters

Revisions Cost You:

  • Time

  • Unpaid rework

  • Scorecard penalties

  • Turn-time pressure

  • Credibility with clients

We Help You:

  • Identify issues before reviewers

  • Clarify once, not repeatedly

  • Submit easier-to-review reports

  • Maintain compliance easily

  • Protect your license

Results You'll See:

  • Fewer revision requests

  • Better scorecards

  • Faster turn times

  • Increased volume

  • Greater confidence at submission

Appraisal IQ reflects the mindset of a senior reviewer, a QC auditor, and an experienced appraisal manager because it was built by someone who has been all three. It doesn't try to replace appraisers. It helps them do their work more clearly, efficiently, and defensibly.

What We Do

What We Do

Appraisal IQ helps appraisers produce clearer, more consistent, and more defensible appraisal reports before submission.

The platform functions as:

  • Quality control reviewer

  • Compliance alignment assistant

  • Narrative clarity tool

  • Revision-prevention system

  • Reviewer-mindset simulator

Intentionally designed NOT to:

  • Provide value opinions

  • Select or choose comparables

  • Calculate or suggest adjustments

  • Override appraiser judgment

Compliance Aligned

Every output is bounded by appraisal-specific guardrails:

  • USPAP

  • FHA Handbook 4000.1

  • UAD and ANSI standards

  • Engagement letters and lender overlays

  • Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidance

Focus Areas

We focus on areas that most often lead to revision requests:

  • Ambiguous or defensive wording

  • Internal inconsistencies between report sections

  • Checkbox and narrative misalignment

  • Missing explanations that confuse reviewers

  • Lender and engagement-specific overlay risks
