“We are very pleased to have completed our acquisition of ValVets and welcome aboard Andrew Belt and his team as part of the Clarocity brand,” said Shane Copeland, CEO of Clarocity. “The synergies between Clarocity and ValVets are highly complementary and we have already begun to recognize the benefits from working as one cohesive group. We are well positioned going forward to capitalize on the massive valuation and appraisal market in front of us. With the addition of ValVets, we are now fully licensed across the US to perform appraisals opening the door for institutions to take full advantage of our Clarocity platform and next generation appraisal, the Market Value Pro (MVP).”
“On behalf of the ValVets team, I would like to express our excitement to be joining the Clarocity team,” offered Andrew Belt, President of ValVets. “We firmly believe in the vision that Clarocity has outlined and are thrilled to be a part of this game-changing organization. We look forward to working alongside Clarocity under one brand to become the leading valuation platform in the country.”
