Market Intelligence Enhancements: More Precise Loan and Property Classifications

We've rolled out several exciting enhancements to Market Intelligence that make it easier to uncover opportunities, analyze market activity, and export richer transaction data. These updates bring more detailed loan and property classifications, expanded filtering options, and enhanced exports, giving you a clearer view of the market than ever before.

A Quick Note: Because these enhancements use updated classification methodologies throughout Market Intelligence, you may notice differences in counts and categorization compared to previous searches, reports, or exports. These changes are the result of more detailed and accurate classifications designed to provide a clearer picture of market activity.

Updated Filter Experience 

We've introduced a new filtering experience that makes it easier to manage search criteria and supports future filter enhancements. 

What's New? 

• Transaction filters are now accessed through the Edit Filters button in the upper-right corner of the Transactions page. 

• Filters are organized into expandable sections for easier navigation. 

• The new experience provides room for additional filter enhancements over time. 

Expanded Loan Type Filters 

We've also added more detailed loan classifications, helping users analyze lending activity beyond traditional purchase and refinance transactions. 

What's New? 

The Loan Type filter now includes: 

• Purchase loan 

• Refinance loan 

• Junior 

• HELOC 

• Equity 

• Reverse 

• Other loan 

Previously, many secondary lending transactions were grouped into broad Junior or Other categories. These transactions are now classified into more specific loan types, providing greater visibility into home equity lending, reverse mortgages, subordinate loans, and other financing activity. 

This makes it easier to identify, analyze, and report on specific loan segments that were previously grouped together.

Enhanced Property Type Filters 

We've also expanded property classifications to provide more accurate and granular market analysis. 

What's New? 

The Property Type filter now includes: 

• Residential  

• Single family 

• Condominium 

• Apartments (1–4 units) 

• Apartments (5+ units) 

• Other residential 

• Commercial 

• Agricultural 

• Vacant land 

• Other 

Users can still analyze activity across all residential properties while also drilling into specific residential segments. 

The updated classification methodology improves property categorization accuracy, expands coverage across transaction types, and provides greater visibility into residential market activity. 

Enhanced Transaction Detail Exports

Transaction detail exports now include additional transaction-level information and support the same expanded loan classifications available within Market Intelligence.

What's New?

• Transaction detail exports now include Borrower Name.

• Exported transactions reflect the enhanced loan type classifications available in Market Intelligence.

• Loan category counts and volumes can now be analyzed across Purchase, Refinance, Junior, HELOC, Equity, Reverse, and Other loan activity.

Note: Exports now use the same enhanced loan classification methodology available throughout Market Intelligence. Users may notice differences in loan category counts and volumes compared to previous exports.

These enhancements are designed to help you uncover more meaningful market insights with greater precision. Whether you're prospecting, analyzing trends, or reporting on market activity, you'll have more powerful tools at your fingertips.
