PRP Assist
Preston Rowe Paterson (PRP) has launched an exciting new software application to assist its teams throughout Australia and New Zealand. The client interactive technology, known as PRP Assist, allows owners, tenants, associated professionals, and clients to directly upload requested documentation and relevant information to the valuer undertaking any property valuation assignment.
PRP Assist also provides a secure pathway for Residential, Commercial & Retail occupiers to provide information during COVID-19 Lockdowns or restrictions. We had previously been utilising a third party to provide geocoded photographs and property information. However, with our recently acquired ISO 27001 Data Security certification, it was possible and considered necessary to develop our own application in-house to ensure a seamless end to end experience for our clients across all property types.
In Australia there has been widespread acceptance and adoption of this technology throughout the many lockdown events that our trans-Tasman colleagues have had to endure. The technology is equally applicable to the New Zealand market albeit there has not been the requirement for this to be adopted considering the reduced lock down experience we have had.
