UAD 3.6 is changing what the job actually looks like. Less static paperwork. More structured data and technology driven workflows. The profession is modernizing at exactly the right time.
What if appraisals could be completed in days instead of weeks? Hybrid appraisals are helping lenders speed up valuations, improve efficiency, and keep loans moving. As the industry evolves, the right technology can make all the difference. connexionssoftware.com/blogs…
UAD 3.6 mandatory compliance hits November 2026. Lenders managing a volume rebound and a major operational transition at the same time need reliable delivery data. It is not a convenience at that point, it is risk management.
UAD 3.6 brings ~150 new data fields. More fields means more chances for a UCDP rejection. Is your platform catching errors before they hit the portal?

More than 20% of active appraisers are over 65. Supply is shrinking roughly 3% per year while origination volume is climbing. Teams working from historical turnaround benchmarks are getting caught off guard, not because something went wrong but because the baseline has shifted.
But here’s what nobody’s talking about with appraisal delays: 68% of staff time goes to manual work — follow-ups, scheduling, corrections.
That’s not a staffing issue. It’s a workflow issue.
And it adds ~$629 per appraisal.
How is your team handling that right now?

One of the biggest changes with UAD 3.6 is the shift to a more structured data format. That means more standardized appraisal data, helping improve automation, QC, and analytics across lending. The transition may take time, but the long-term goal is better data quality.
UAD 3.6 goes live on November 2.
Many appraisers are already testing new workflows and learning what the transition may look like in practice.
For lenders and AMCs, now is a good time to ask
Are your teams and partners prepared for the shift?
