For valuations not requiring a full-blown appraisal, the alternative 
valuation solutions in Mercury Network provide some excellent options.
Currently, you can order 3 products here, with more coming soon:
 
Before you can place orders for an Optival AVM Cascade, OptiVal+, or 
RealCondition Report for the first time, there are a couple of things you'll 
need to do:
  - You'll need to enable the products in Product Requirements. 
  
- You'll also need to speak with your account manager to sign the contract. 
  If you don't have an account manager, contact Client Relations at 
  1-800-900-4954. 
 
To start a new alternative-valuations order in Mercury 
Network:
  - Log into your Mercury Network account. 
  
- Click Orders in the menu at the top of the screen. 
   
 
- In the screen that appears, click New in the toolbar just 
  below the main toolbar, and choose Alternative 
  Valuations.
   
- In the Product dropdown, choose the product you'd like to order. 
  
 
- Enter as many details as you can in the fields provided. Items with the 
  red asterisk are required, but entering more information lowers your risk of 
  delays. 
  
    - If you chose to order Optival AVM Cascade, you'll see the Property 
    Information and Additional information sections. 
    
- If you chose OptiVal+ or RealCondition Report, you'll see the addition 
    of the Property access section and a Rush order 
    checkbox.
 Rush orders are due at 9AM on the 2nd business day, and an 
    additional fee applies. Non-rush orders are due at 9AM on the 4th business 
    day.
  
 
 
- Click Finish so submit the order.
