As the COVID-19 pandemic still continues to plague the U.S., the demand for contactless options has risen, prompting Xome Holdings to create Inspex.

As we look to reduce strain and free up valuable resources for lenders, innovation and a technology-forward focus is the best path to help consumers achieve their homeownership goals."
Inspex is part of a patent-pending process that engages Xome's entire valuation system for use in home equity lending and servicing across the mortgage industry, according to the report. The app also features safeguards to help protect the integrity of each appraisal and reduce the risk of fraud.
