# Appraisal Report Drafting for Residential Property Managers with AppFolio

> AI ingests property data, MLS comps, and inspection notes into AppFolio, drafts the report narrative, places photos, and produces a reviewer-ready output — appraisal capacity doubles per appraiser. Purpose-built for teams running AppFolio — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

- **Tool:** [AppFolio](https://calish.com/workflows/tool/appfolio/)
- **Role:** [Residential Property Manager](https://calish.com/workflows/for/residential-property-manager/)
- **Specialty:** Single-Family / Small Multifamily
- **Category:** Data Entry & Processing
- **Canonical URL:** https://calish.com/workflows/with/appraisal-report-drafting-for-residential-property-manager-with-appfolio/

## The Problem

Single-Family / Small Multifamily reports in AppFolio require subject property data entry, comp selection, photo placement, and narrative writing — and each report takes 4–8 hours of Residential Property Manager time.

## What We Build in AppFolio

AI ingests property data, MLS comps, and inspection notes into AppFolio, drafts the report narrative, places photos, and produces a reviewer-ready output — appraisal capacity doubles per appraiser. Purpose-built for teams running AppFolio — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## AppFolio Integration Approach

1. **Audit your AppFolio configuration.** We map the specific AppFolio objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your single-family / small multifamily practice.
2. **Build on the AppFolio API or agent.** Integration happens inside AppFolio — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in AppFolio with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
