About the UAAR Software

UAAR Preview

Our UAAR® program consists of TWO sections, the UAAR DataLog® and the UAAR ClickFORMS.

UAAR DataLog®

This is a special purpose sales database for storing analytical data including the items below, as well as a wealth of other functions.

1. Land Mix Analysis (ratios are an option).

2. Residual value to buildings may be estimated by using data from unimproved sales.

3. Data on up to 20 improvements can be analyzed to estimate all forms of depreciation and the contribution of each.

4. Sales with prior transfers can be used by the time adjustment tool to document time trend analysis.

5. Five standard summary reports for analyzing ranges in values are as follows:

As a storage tool, the database will store all information necessary to perform an analysis, plus store unlimited comments, photos, maps, and related digital imagery for each sale. Digital photographs, scanned photographs, maps, and other items can be incorporated with the appraisal data and imported into any FormsLibrary® container.

UAAR ClickFORMS

The FormsLibrary® consists of over 200 forms that can be selected as needed to complete an appraisal assignment. This allows the appraiser to tailor the report to the client’s specifications and the subject property's complexities. The following outlines some of the forms available:

After creating your specialized form container, UAAR® gives the appraiser the opportunity to save the report as a template for future like projects. Meaning each appraiser can create a personalized library of appraisal reports.

New Program Features in UAAR 2006

Quickly Organize Sales

The current system of organizing sales using multiple Microsoft Access databases forces users to deal with complex data management. It is confusing to keep track of where sales are located and there is no way to search or report across all of your sales.

The new UAAR DataLog provides one central view for all your sales. The software provides folders so sales can be separated into categories and sub-categories that meet your specific needs. Sales can be moved between folders with simple drag/drop or copy/paste. With a few clicks a working folder can be created and filled with sales that apply to a specific project.

Easily Share Sales

To share a sale in the existing DataLog individual sales must be transferred to a new DataLog. That DataLog must then be attached to an e-mail. Because of increased security around e-mail attachments, it is possible that the e-mail will never make it to its destination.

The new DataLog stores data in industry standard and e-mail friendly XML files. You can attach sales to an e-mail as an attachment by simply dragging them directly from the DataLog Sales Grid to your e-mail message. The files are immediately attached and ready to send. The UAAR user that receives the sale simply reverses the process. Drag the attachments from the e-mail message to the DataLog and the sales are ready for use.

But what if you need to share sales with someone that is not a UAAR user? Currently the only practical way is to print out a hard copy of the sale and fax it.

The new DataLog uses an integrated web page view of the sale. The entire sale or a portion of it can be copied and pasted into any e-mail editor or word processing program. Are you willing to share the sale facts, but not your analysis? No problem, just copy the top portion of the sale sheet and paste it into an e-mail. Are you currently working on a report that can't be done in the UAAR format? Copy your sales out and paste them into a word processor for complete narrative control.

The DataLog views are created using industry standard XSLT files. This provides integration points for IT Departments to create new sales views that are formatted differently from the current sales sheets. Hyperlinks could also be created from the view to tie sales data to other internal or external systems.

Better Access to Sales Data

Sales data is meant to be analyzed. New reports give you more access to work with and view data. Instead of trying to guess what criteria is needed for each report, a common search screen is used to start all reports. In addition, custom filters can be applied to any field in the results to further limit the data used for the report.

The same range of value reports can be generated with added access to the data used to create the report. For example, when analyzing land values you can view or exclude individual sales used in the report. You can also see the raw land data that was used to generate the summary values. New graphs help you find the true range and identify outliers at a glance.

Anywhere a grid is used to display data you have the option to print or export the data to Microsoft Excel. We know that many times custom work is accomplished with Microsoft Excel. Our goal is to get the data into the tools that you use.

Why Should I Buy This Program?

AgWare's concept behind UAAR® was to create a user friendly and efficient rural appraisal program. We wish to embrace technology and change by giving all appraisers enormous FLEXIBILITY and unlimited TIME SAVINGS in a simple software package!

Flexibility:

  1. - The appraiser has total control of the appraisal methodology that is delivered to the client by creating a report that satisfies their specific needs.
  2. - The UAAR® can be expanded to over 500 pages, or tailored to Restricted Use formats with only a few pages.
  3. - The user can elect to add pages into the report container at anytime and the values already entered will automatically populate any new cells.
  4. - The sales in the DataLog can be pulled into the reports analyzed, and then deleted or saved at the appraiser's discretion depending on the needs of the client.

Time Savings:

  1. - The UAAR® program has standardized the transfer of data throughout the forms which will eliminate the duplication of data entry.
  2. - The user's ability to scan pictures, maps, and exhibits into the report container will reduce time and costs.
  3. - The DataLog® can be transferred to other UAAR® users, thus creating a sales research library, or called into Microsoft applications for word processing.
  4. - The reports completed in the program can be sent in PDF format to other users or clients who may not have the UAAR® program.
  5. - The reports done by the appraiser can be saved to a template for future use.

UAAR® was computerized for efficiency. The changing appraisal environment has demanded flexibility and consistency. With this program you can deliver without sacrificing value for you or the client.
