Bradford Technologies Announces Revolutionary New Service, AppraisalWorld™

An Online Community of Valuation Professionals Developed for Appraisers and Lenders
San Jose, CA, October 12, 2007 – Bradford Technologies, Inc., the leading developer of innovative, hassle-free appraisal products, is celebrating its 20th year of service to the appraisal industry by launching a revolutionary new service called “AppraisalWorld”. AppraisalWorld is an innovative Internet community that provides valuation professionals the resources and opportunities to expand their business, to build stronger relationships and to develop new valuation tools that will make the appraisal profession the strongest it has ever been.

The cornerstone of AppraisalWorld is its patent-pending, national directory of appraisers that locates and ranks appraisers by their level of local-area knowledge about the subject property and its neighborhood.

“Finding appraisers with the most local area expertise is critical to improving the appraisal process. Our AppraisalWorld Directory of appraisers is the first step in that direction,” stated Jeff Bradford, CEO of Bradford Technologies. Lenders and brokers referencing the directory can be confident that the appraiser listed has local-area expertise and can provide the quickest and most reliable property valuation.

Additional AppraisalWorld services include Appraisal Lockers™, for storing the appraisers’ credentials online for easy validation and reference by lenders and brokers; Appraisal Sentry™ for secure identity authentication and report fraud prevention; and Appraisal Express™ for hassle-free online order management using the new MISMO XML Valuation data standard. The AppraisalWorld Shopping Mall will open soon.

Bradford Technologies’ volume purchasing power and strategic partnerships with industry-leading companies such as Microsoft®, Marshall & Swift™, Fidelity Data Services, Flood Insights™, Veros and many more will allow AppraisalWorld members to purchase, at discount prices, all the services, software, hardware and data needed for their appraisal business, including AVMs and continuing education credits.

Bradford added, “We are excited to make this web community available to appraisers and the lender community. Membership has recently grown 300%, and we project that trend to continue steadily in the next few months.” AppraisalWorld offers several membership levels, which are customized to benefit the beginning “Apprentice” appraiser, the skilled “Professional ”, the veteran “Top Producer” or the multi-user “Enterprise” firm. For a limited time, appraisers can become AppraisalWorld Directory members and receive a one-year listing for free.
