We’ve all heard the term ‘no-brainer’- The unofficial definition is “something so obvious, that it requires no contemplation to decide upon.”
With the changing face of lending, and the fact that many regulations now require 3rd party certification, relying on an Appraisal Management Company that clearly understands the dynamics of the Credit Union membership mentality and is able to provide member services paired with unmatched expertise needed to make every Credit Union more efficient has fallen into that ‘no brainer’ category, and no other firm can match NAN’s culture of membership and credentials.
“One thing is clear when speaking to our growing number of Credit Union clients,” says Joni Pilgrim, Co-Founder and Director of Sales and Business Development. “They need to have a plan of action for dealing with the depth of regulatory changes that are enacted on a regular basis in this day and age”.
So what does NAN do to make Credit Unions run more efficiently and offer a better product to their members? Plenty. Through “Panel Management” Nationwide Appraisal Network has established a true national footprint of over 10,000 appraiser partners in all 50 states and their Credit Union clientele continues to grow because of the following benefits:
