valuation data and analytics

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., April 5, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Platinum Data Solutions, a provider of valuation data and analytics solutions, has launched RealView(R) QB (Quality Bridge), the industry's only appraisal quality technology that allows users to authorize access and share information with third parties, including lenders, AMCs, appraisers and investors.

RealView QB is a workflow feature in RealView, the industry's most advanced appraisal quality technology. It enables a single, centralized system of record for appraisal quality control. With RealView QB, users can invite virtually any relevant party to access their appraisal quality and underwriting process on a limited, user-defined basis. These third parties simply log in to RealView, review appraisal QC results and immediate take action. Examples of these actions include resolving issues, providing explanations or revisions, asking questions, such as clarification on comp selection, and much more.

By sharing a single system of record, RealView QB can eliminate some of the most time consuming, error-prone activities in the mortgage process, such as rekeying appraisal information, communicating findings and requesting additional information.

"The back-and-forth nature of the appraisal QC process slows the mortgage process and costs companies thousands of dollars each year. Plus, when lenders, AMCs, appraisers and investors operate in silos, it's difficult to achieve transparency," said Phil Huff, president and CEO of Platinum Data. "RealView QB's real-time information sharing reduces mistakes and repetitive tasks while bringing transparency to appraisal QC. All parties benefit from lower costs and protected margins, and the industry as a whole gains the transparency it needs."

Platinum Data's online platform and analytical tools are used to protect the country's top 10 mortgage lenders, and are integrated with nine of the top 10 appraisal management systems.

Platinum Data Executive Craig Zielazny Named to Board of Advisors for Wittenberg University’s New Master of Science in Analytics Program

Craig Zielazny

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., March 22, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Platinum Data Solutions, a provider of valuation data and analytics solutions, has announced that Craig Zielazny, the company's senior vice president of valuation analytics, has been named to the Board of Advisors for Springfield, Ohio-based Wittenberg University's new Master of Science in Analytics program. The Board of Advisors is charged with collaborating to create the department's curricula and courses, and could include guest lecturing. The inaugural semester for Wittenberg University's Master of Science in Analytics program begins in August 2016.

According to program coordinator Jana Buck, the Master of Science in Analytics program seeks to provide students with a comprehensive knowledge base that includes both analytics and management.

"Today's managers need to know enough about analytics to enable them to communicate effectively with analysts," said Buck. "In addition, analysts who want to be in management need skills beyond the nuts-and-bolts knowledge that got them to this point. Success in management depends on things like knowledge and skills in managing people, understanding roles within an organization, and big-picture thinking. The goal of the Analytics Program is to arm our graduates with a skillset that covers these two critical facets."

Zielazny, a noted lecturer who has held managerial and executive level roles in mortgage valuation analytics for over a decade, hopes his knowledge and passion for valuation analytics will help to cultivate interest in the residential real estate valuation segment among the program's students and new graduates.

"The valuation segment needs new recruits and it also needs deeper analytics," he said. "The truth is, we're sitting on a practically endless supply of both. The more we embrace advanced analytics in the residential valuation space, the safer mortgage and collateral-based transactions will become, and the easier it will be to attract the next generation of high quality analysts and managers."

Zielazny oversees the valuation analytics division of Platinum Data, which is recognized by the top 15 AVM providers for generating the industry's highest quality valuation data, and pioneering the most rigorous AVM testing and validation program in the industry.

Platinum Data's online platform and analytical tools are used to protect the country's top 10 mortgage lenders, and are integrated with nine of the top 10 appraisal management systems.

Orange County: ‘Trace Amounts’ film screening with film producer Eric Gladen and local pediatrician Dr. Bob Sears

Trace Amounts

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., July 31, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- On Thursday, August 6, Liberty Lives and Council for Vaccine Safety will co-sponsor a film screening of the powerful, eye-opening documentary "Trace Amounts." An expert Q&A panel will directly follow the film and include "Trace Amounts" producers Eric Gladen and Shiloh Levine, well-known local pediatrician Dr. Bob Sears, investigative journalist Lori Martin Gregory, civil rights lawyer George Fatheree and former Merck representative Brandy Vaughan, founder of Council for Vaccine Safety.

The film is free for all media. A pre-movie mixer, including appetizers, offers the rare opportunity to speak with panelists and others in the community before the film.

WHEN AND WHERE:
Thursday, August 6, 2015, 7:30 p.m.
Edwards Aliso Viejo Stadium 20 and IMAX.
26701 Aliso Viejo Creek Rd, Aliso Viejo, CA 92656.
Pre-movie mixer next door to theater: 6 p.m. at Stadium Brewing Company. Q&A panel discussion directly following film.

"Trace Amounts" follows Eric Gladen as he searches for the truth after suffering a severe reaction to a tetanus vaccine at age 29. He finds that these reactions are far more common than most realize and have wreaked havoc on the health of Americans. Eric discovers a myriad of deceptions within the U.S. healthcare industry and the government, that prove our vaccine program is more about profit than public health.

Throughout his two-year journey into the depths of the U.S. vaccine program, Eric interviews many healthcare experts including doctors, researchers and health officials as well as families with children that suffer from the same reaction as Eric did - mercury poisoning from vaccines. He uncovers the many lies portrayed as truth to the American public. He questions why pharmaceutical companies are allowed to continue putting mercury - and other known heavy metals and toxins - into vaccines that are then passed off as safe, when there is clear scientific evidence that shows these additives are linked with neurological disabilities, autoimmune diseases and even cancer.

"Trace Amounts" is an extremely important film as mandatory vaccination laws are being proposed throughout the country. One of the strictest vaccination laws in the country, SB277, was signed into law by Governor Brown in June, eliminating all personal belief and religious exemptions. It requires a full 35 vaccine doses, including vaccines for non-communicable diseases like tetanus, before children are allowed to enter public or private school. Also under SB277, children will not be allowed to attend preschool or daycare without being up-to-date on the full schedule of vaccinations - selective or delayed vaccination will not be allowed.

With the passage of SB277, California joins two other states - Mississippi and West Virginia - that enforce the strictest vaccination laws in the country. These two states also have some of the highest rates of infant mortality as well as other childhood diseases and disabilities including SIDs, allergies, autoimmune issues, autism, speech delays, ADHD, type-1 diabetes, leukemia and asthma. SB277 puts Californian children at risk of following suit as the childhood vaccine schedule continually increases and as more toxins are used within the vaccines as adjuvants and preservatives.

With 53 recommended vaccines doses by kindergarten, the U.S. already leads the world with the most intensive vaccination schedule, giving 2-3 times more vaccines to its children than other developed countries. The U.S. gives 26 vaccine doses before age one, yet has the highest infant mortality in the developed world (despite spending more on healthcare per capita than any other country).

Currently under California law, children who actually carry diseases such as Hepatitis and HIV are allowed in public and private school and cannot be discriminated based on their health conditions. Yet children who are healthy, and do not carry these diseases will not be allowed in either public or private school. This infringes on the rights of Californian children to free public education without discrimination, as per the California Constitution. Discrimination includes discrimination based on health status.

Vaccines have never been studied for safety in combination, yet 6-9 doses are routinely given during childhood doctor visits. Many vaccine additives, such as aluminum, MSG and formaldehyde, have been repeatedly linked to neurotoxicity, auto-immune diseases and cancer. Currently in the U.S., vaccines are the only product that has complete liability protection, meaning if you or your child is injured or killed by a vaccine, you cannot sue the vaccine maker.

While SB277 targets children and their fundamental right to a free public education, lawmakers are also planning mandatory vaccination laws that will apply to college students, hospital workers, school staff and, eventually, the entire adult population.

The film is free for all media. To purchase additional tickets, please visit: http://gathr.us/screening/12527.

Council for Vaccine Safety, founded by a former pharmaceutical representative, is a non-profit organization focused on education and public awareness of vaccine risks while advocating for safer vaccines and medical freedom, a fundamental right.

Liberty Lives is a group of like-minded individuals that are standing up to continue and regain our natural-born liberties under the premise that all are created equal. We believe in freedom of health, the right to education and individual liberties for all.
