Release Notes

Two new credit programs are live, along with report comments, a clearer new-report setup, and a round of sales comparison, analytics, and export improvements.

Credit programs

Buyout program

If you are currently paying another appraisal software provider, you can submit a receipt (image or PDF) for review. Approved claims may receive up to $350 in Aivre account credit, applied automatically to the next eligible payment. Personal and organization claims are both supported, and you do not need an Aivre subscription to apply.

Learn more about the buyout program

New submissions close November 4, 2026 at midnight Eastern. Claims already submitted can still be reviewed after the deadline.

Referral program

Share your personal referral code from Profile → Credit & Referrals. You earn $100 in account credit each time a referred appraiser purchases an individual Aivre subscription with your code. The person you refer pays the regular price. Codes can be entered at checkout, not only at signup.

Learn more about the referral program

Buyout and referral credit both appear on the same Credit & Referrals balance and can be combined.

Reporting

Field comments

Leave comments on report fields and comparable-grid cells, @mention colleagues, reply in threads, and edit. If a repeating row is removed, those comments move to general report notes instead of disappearing.

New report setup

Choose Blank, AI Autofill, or Template when you create a report. Blank and Template reports can still use AI Autofill later.

Sales comparison and units

• Auto Adjust is available on the Year Built row, and new SCA reports include a Project Information adjustment row by default.
• Amounts auto-convert when you change a number-with-suffix unit (for example square feet to acres).
• Comp-database lookup now runs for typed and CSV-imported addresses, including ZIP and unit.
• Crawl space and slab are no longer treated as living-unit levels.
• Future dates are blocked on Contract Date; historical dates still work.
• The comparable table keeps a usable horizontal scrollbar while you scroll the page.
• Sketch commentary is available in the commentary library.

Editing a signed report now asks you to confirm before signatures are cleared.

---

Analytics and maps

• Paired sales analysis updates, including distance on CSV mapping.
• The market-area map in PDF export is centered on the market area, not only the subject.
• The absorption-rate plot matches the exported version.
• Pending-comp counts in the analytics overlay no longer drop comps that are missing a close price.

---

Exports and compliance

• PDF and ZIP downloads are more reliable.
• ZIP export checks a fresh UAD validation status. If the report is stale or has fatal compliance issues, you are sent back to UAD Compliance instead of exporting.
• Vehicle Storage DDD is omitted from the PDF when storage is None.
• Amenity exhibit captions wrap instead of truncating.
• Validation errors can jump into empty tab sections and the correct signature or report fields.

---

Also in this release

• Organization owners and admins can generate invoices without being assigned to every order.
• Referral code entry is a single paste-friendly field, and it is hidden if you are already referred.
• Aivre Academy Episode 10 is on the How To page.
• Ava chat is easier to focus and type in.
• Place Photos supports up to 50 images, with autofill photo-review and exhibit routing fixes.
• The SCA reconciliation editor scrolls with the page, and the commentary library is no longer clipped.
• AI Autofill results and usage can be saved to the workfile for lender-facing audit history.

If a feature or characteristic of the subject property differs from a feature or characteristic of a comparable property and there is no market support for an adjustment, enter a $0 in the adjustment line. The zero indicates that the appraiser has considered the difference and determined that there is no measurable impact. This includes information that is not applicable for the subject, such as Financing Type and Sale Date.

Sales Comparison Approach

Adding Dwellings, Units, or Outbuildings to Comps

When you add a sales comp, it is initially set up with one Dwelling and one Unit (in the Dwelling).

Click on the blue settings icon, and then the appropriate plus sign to add more:

• Additional Dwelling(s)
• Outbuilding(s) that are real property (Outbuildings that are not real property are not reported in the sales grid)
• Additional Unit(s) in the Dwelling or Outbuilding (To add an ADU to a Dwelling or Outbuilding, add the unit and then check the box for Unit is an ADU = Yes)
• Standalone ADU/Garage
  • Standalone ADUs and ADU/Garages are a special case because they don’t display in the Outbuilding rows on the PDF, but the information is required in Aivre to give context to the unit information (Location of ADU). Read more about this in Appendix F-1, Appendix 4 Detached Garage Examples.
  • When you select this option, Aivre will:
    • Add a Standalone ADU to the comp (change it to ADU/Garage if applicable)
    • Add a unit with ADU = Yes

Outbuildings

Aivre screens have been updated to more closely mirror the PDF, and to facilitate the reporting of outbuildings in the sales grid.

• If applicable, Standalone ADUs and ADU/Garages are grouped together
• Add additional outbuildings in the order you want them to display on the report

---

Unequal Number of Units

The GSEs have issued guidance for how to handle cases when a comp has a different number of units than the subject property.

• Be sure to input the correct numbers for the comp (Note: Aivre Report Validations have been added):
  • Number of Units Excluding ADUs
  • Number of ADUs on Property
  • Units in Structure
• Enter information about the unit in the Unit(s) subsection.
  • Note: The rows are not adjustable in this case.
• Add an Additional Row under Dwelling(s) with the label Total Units
  • In Description, enter the number of units for the subject and each comp
  • Use this row to make appropriate adjustments

In some cases, you will receive warning message UAD1470 from the UAD Compliance Checker until the next release of the Compliance APIs from the GSEs. This is acceptable.

The UAD 3.6 URAR report contains hundreds of data points, making manual entry and review extremely time-consuming. AIVRE’s UAD 3.6-compliant AI auto-filling feature streamlines this process, improving efficiency and allowing you to focus on what matters most: value.

---

AI Auto-Fill

From internal testing, Aivre’s AI Auto-Fill has proven to be a gamechanger for improving efficiency and speed in the UAD 3.6 reporting process. See below for the following efficiencies that we’ve noted:

Key Efficiencies

---

How It Works

Using AIVRE’s AI Auto-Fill is simple. The process consists of five steps: Address Entry, Public Record & MLS Analysis, Photo Analysis, Supporting Document Analysis, and Auto-Fill. We’ve broken down each step below:

1) Address Entry

• Simply type in your subject property address
• We provide address autocomplete suggestions as you type

2) Public Record & MLS Analysis

• We pull public records and MLS data for the subject property straight from the source.
• Aivre integrates with 95% of MLS databases across the US

3) Photo Analysis

• Using uploaded images and/or photos from your workfile, we analyze each photo to determine qualitative features of the subject property.
• These features include quality of construction, condition, materials, estimated ceiling height, architectural style, and so much more

4) Supporting Document Analysis

• Upload an engagement letter and a sales contract to have it analyzed.
• Engagement letter information includes borrower names, inspection type, and other information related to the Assignment Information Section.
• Sales Contract information includes sale price, concession information, and other pertinent information relating to the Sales Contract Section.

5) Auto-Fill

• All of the aforementioned data collected in the prior steps are analyzed through our proprietary AI solutions to map directly into your report.
• Fully UAD 3.6 compliant

Overall Functionality

AIVRE Analytics

This feature enables you to upload a CSV file of market data from your MLS to populate the Market section of the URAR and add comparables to the Sales Comparison Approach. Access this within a report by selecting the Continue in Analytics button at the top of the screen when you are in the Sales Comparison Approach, or by clicking on the Market Analytics icon in the tools panel on the right.

Report Validation

The AIVRE Report Validation functionality has been expanded. To see the Report Validations, click on the validation icon.

If there are required fields that are not populated:

• A red circle displays in the Navigation panel on the left
• A specific message is displayed in the Report Validation panel on the right

UAD Compliance Checker and Exporting ZIP file

You must run the UAD Compliance Checkers from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac prior to exporting the ZIP file for your client. These messages enforce data quality and minimize the back and forth between you and your client, as they are the same messages that the client will receive when they submit the order to the Uniform Collateral Data Portal (UCDP). You should clear up all Fatal and Warning messages unless you have received instructions from your client that a specific Warning message is acceptable to them.

Exporting the ZIP file is available when:

• UAD Compliance Checker has been run since the report was last updated
• Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac's UAD Compliance Checker has not returned any Fatal messages

Field Size Limitations and Text Box Size

For text fields such as comments and descriptions, we have implemented field size limitations at the request of the GSEs. You will see a notation for each field showing the number of characters used / remaining. The text box also expands to show all characters entered.

Note: If a field was previously entered that exceeds the allowable number of characters, a Report Validation message displays.

Removed Shaded Zeroes

Based on your feedback, we have removed the "shaded 0s" to make it easier to see that the field is not being defaulted to 0; you must enter a value. Examples include the Area Breakdown in Unit Interior, and the adjustments in Sales Comparison Approach.

---
