Data for Identifying Risks, Analytics for Policy Creation
ATTOM is a leading provider of property data for underwriting to various industries. Underwriters of mortgages and insurance policies must conduct in-depth research to assess risk. ATTOM provides extensive data for underwriters’ research needs, speeding up the underwriting process, including policy creation and loan approvals.
ATTOM offers property data and reports needed to assess risk accurately. These include hazard and environmental risk data, crime data, and economic data. Also, data-driven underwriting leverages today’s technology, and ATTOM’s data are designed to integrate with data analytics. Artificial intelligence and machine-learning models parse vast data points to determine future trends in risk factors.
Is a property close to a river known to flood? Is a borrower in a particular neighborhood high-risk and likely to default on a mortgage loan? These are the types of questions that underwriters must answer. ATTOM provides comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date property and real estate data that supports various stages of the underwriting process, covering every possible risk scenario for an insurance policy.
