Stage 2 Analysis User Guide

Enter the property information used to begin the Stage 2 research.

• Enter the complete property address. This is the only required field.
• Ownership or acquisition type and an ACT DataScout screenshot are optional.
• Select Run Stage 2 Analysis. Keep the browser tab open while research runs.

The research indicator shows that the system is working even when the analysis takes several minutes.

• The phase description changes as research moves through property facts, ARV, construction, and intangible grading.
• The elapsed timer starts at 0:00 for each research operation.
• Do not refresh or close the tab while the indicator is running.

Compare the AI findings with Master Suite or other trusted property information.

• Review every Confirmed Value field and correct any inaccurate value.
• A Conflict label means public sources disagree. Use Master Suite as the authoritative record.
• Select Continue. If you changed a value, the tool recalculates ARV and displays a new timer. If nothing changed, it opens the saved ARV immediately.

Use this page as a pre-walk screening range, not as a final appraisal or offer recommendation.

• Review the low and high ARV per square foot and the corresponding totals.
• Enter these values in Master Suite.
• The ARV Ceiling normally equals the High ARV total. The tool may recommend a lower ceiling and explain why; you may also lower it in Master Suite when known neighborhood evidence supports the change.
• Note the confidence level before continuing.

Review the suggested preliminary construction entries and the brief evidence supporting them.

• Check each suggested entry, confidence level, and reason.
• Select a thumbnail to view its source image when available.
• Use Add photos or screenshots when additional property evidence is available.
• The preliminary total appears at the bottom of the page.
• Enter these values in Master Suite.

Review each market-related recommendation before transferring information into Master Suite.

• Each field is graded Positive, Neutral, Negative, or Unknown.
• Use the reason and confidence level to judge how much weight to place on the recommendation.
• These are research-supported starting points and may be revised after the property walk.
• Enter these values in Master Suite.

Review the final research fields, select recipients if needed, and choose the appropriate report action.

• Best practice: Generate the PDF first and review it. After the report is correct and approved, use Generate PDF and Email to send it.
• Generate PDF saves a PDF to Drive for review and does not send email.
• Generate PDF and Email saves the PDF and sends it to the selected Wanderlust recipients and any valid optional address.
• Use Open PDF to review the saved report and View full photos to open the full-resolution photo folder.
• The Saved to Drive message confirms that the analysis record was stored automatically.
• Enter these values in Master Suite.

Use Open Previous to resume or review a saved Stage 2 analysis from any authorized device with authorized access.

• Select Open Previous from the header or the Start Analysis screen.
• Choose the property using its address, saved date and time, and ARV range.
• The tool opens Confirm Property Configuration. Continue without editing to view the saved ARV immediately.
• If you change a configuration value, the tool reruns the ARV research and automatically saves the revision.
