Thoughts on UAD3.6 and Software?
I've now completed my 3rd UAD 3.6 report, and it's definitely getting easier and faster with each report. I'm currently using AIVRE, and overall it's been a good experience, although I don't have much basis for comparison since I haven't used any of the other UAD 3.6 platforms.
I'm curious what software other appraisers are using and what their experiences have been so far.
My biggest frustration at the moment is the Sales Comparison Grid. Having to scroll up and down through three pages is extremely tedious and inefficient. I'm used to seeing all of my comparables and adjustments on a single screen so I can easily analyze the adjustments and fine-tune them as needed. I brought this concern to the AIVRE team and am hoping they can find a way to make the grid more appraiser friendly. Hopefully it's something they'll actually address.
Another observation is that the AI features haven't been as useful as I initially expected. After completing several reports, I've found that I actually prefer working without AI assistance. It tends to slow me down because I have to review and verify everything it generates. At this point, I'd rather rely on my created templates that give me more control over the report content and reduce the risk of missing information or having something entered incorrectly.
Interested to hear what others are experiencing with UAD 3.6 software and whether you've found any platforms that stand out.
