FLORIDA NEWSWIRE (NAPLES, Fla.) — Class Valuation, a leading real estate appraisal management company, today announced a partnership with Makena, a next-generation property data platform designed to help enterprises collect accurate, structured and actionable property data at scale. Through the partnership, Class Valuation appraisers will gain access to InstaPlan(r), Makena’s mobile data collection and floor plan application, as they prepare for the wide-scale UAD 3.6 mandate on November 2, 2026.

InstaPlan generates ANSI-compliant floor plans, including real-time GLA calculations, and captures discrete data points as appraisers move through a property. Unlike other mobile data collection apps, appraisers can stop and resume collection at any point and complete all required data fields before leaving the property, making it a practical tool for UAD 2.6 reports today and built for what UAD 3.6 will require. InstaPlan integrates directly with SFREP and supports MISMO-compliant exports for appraisers using other form providers.

Class Valuation appraisers using InstaPlan are already seeing meaningful time savings, with average inspection times dropping from 1.3 hours to less than 30 minutes for a standard 3,300 square foot property. Faster data collection reduces revision requests and accelerates report delivery.

InstaPlan is available now for iOS through the Apple App Store. Class appraisers can complete InstaPlan training at makenauniversity.com.
