According to Countrywide, Geoconnect brings together “advanced data integration” by accessing a vast property record database and using hundreds of individual data points.

Geoconnect will then determine the most appropriate valuation method for each case based on its understanding of the property attributes and associated risks.

Backed by Countrywide’s New Home Insite data, the system assesses construction type, sustainability factors, Section 106 obligations, and other common new-build risks.
