1 v RPR website and RPR Mobile for ios/android tablet and phone Released September 12, 2017 Welcome to the latest RPR release, full of excellent additions such as new traffic data, tracking of reports opened by your clients, and a better Comp Analysis experience in the mobile app to make your daily real estate life a little easier. To find out more about our September 2017 release, read on: RPR Website Traffic Counts and Points of Interest updated Let s begin our latest with the newly updated Traffic Counts shown on maps in Commercial mode. This data update for 2017 provides you with more than 11,000 new traffic numbers provided by our data partner Kalibrate, bringing the total data collection to more than 3 million! This feature allows you to fulfill your clients' need to understand the traffic patterns around a particular property within your marketplace. And our updates don't stop with Traffic Counts. The September release provides you with a refreshed set of more than 13 million points of interests (POIs). Whether you are researching neighborhood amenities or particular POIs, you can easily display this data for consumers in both residential and commercial modes. POIs contain a wealth of facts, figures and other useful information about businesses in a market. Not only do the POIs provide the business type and name, but additional information about the companies are displayed as you drill down to discover more. For example, learn about the number of employees, sales volume, size and age of the business, sourced from U.S. Census and InfoUSA data via Esri.

2 Commercial updates for custom Trade Area Reports, mortgage data and distressed details Commercial practitioners, you will also love the ability to select multiple geographies for custom Trade Area Reports in our latest release. Along with this update, we re featuring streamlined drawing tools on all maps, commercial as well as residential. For example, by selecting custom areas, RPR will provide you with select multiple geographies available to search (census block groups, ZIP codes, cities and more). To accomplish this, draw your custom area, name it, then select save. You can now use your new detailed area and create a custom Trade Area Report for this area. You can create custom trade areas for drive time and radius (5 miles and 15 minutes).

3 Commercial users can also access mortgage and distressed information on Property Details pages and in reports. This information helps you evaluate investment properties based on loan-to-value ratio. RPR provides the contract date, loan type, borrower name, interest rate and more (where available). Distressed data sourced from public records is shown too. Better tracking for reports sent to clients When you send a report to a consumer, RPR tracks and displays when the recipient views the report. The notification shows the user s most recent opening of your report, so you know when your customer read the information you provided them from RPR. If you have not used one of RPR's recent additions, the Tendril energy data, you are missing out on a great feature to share with consumers. However, we realize that not everyone may want to include such data within your RPR reports. Therefore, with this new update, you can suppress the home energy data if you prefer to leave this information off the consumer s report.

4 And a favorite new feature in this update is the addition of the report cover in the notifications we send to your consumer. This shows the user a glimpse of the report type shared with them, and helps encourage your customer to open and view your .

5 Enhanced charts to help you understand your marketplace better In this latest release, we have adjusted a few of the tables displayed on the Property Details page to help you determine more accurately what is selling in your marketplace.

Of course, this refined statistical data will help you to create the correct market strategy and marketing plan for your property under evaluation. Radius map search defines size of area If you create polygon searches within your geographic farm area or marketplace, you will love the new feature added to the drawing tool. When you draw a polygon search, we include the size of the search for your area. This feature helps you understand the size of the farm or search area you are prospecting for business.
