1004MC Service
The Calculation Process
We have carefully reviewed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac documentation and surveyed tenured appraisers across the country to arrive at the best practices for arriving at the 1004MC results and corresponding market statistics.
Our desire is for our calculation process to be transparent – so you can be assured that our results are accurate.
To assist in this transparency we offer a Calculation Check file, which you can download and run through the 1004MC Service engine to verify the results are accurate.
Calculation Check File
Download the Calc Check file and go to the 1004MC Service in ClickFORMS. Select 1. Calculation Verification for the MLS system and upload this verification file. Make sure the effective date is 12/31/2008 when you run it through the 1004MC Service.
Calculation Check Details: Download the Calc Check file and go to the market analysis tool. Select 1. Calculation Verification for the MLS system and upload this verification file. Make sure the effective date is 12/31/2008 when you run it through the Market Analysis Tool.
The Calc Check file contains the following:
- 12 Sold Records – Each has a list date of the 10th of each month, beginning January 2008. Each sold record has sold date of the 20th of the same month it was listed. The list price is $110,000 and the Sold Price is $92,000. Each sale was on the market for 10 days (list date to sold date).
- 7 Active Records – Each record has a list date on the 5th of each month, beginning June 2008. Each active record has a list price of $110,000.
- 1 Pending Sale – the pending sale has a list date of 12/1/08, a contract / pending date of 12/10/08, and a list price of $105,000
ClickFORMS 1004MC Service will produce the following statistics:
A common question is how the listing counts are arrived at. Each sold record is not an active listing in the period it was sold.

Each field represents a cumulative count of the total number of properties on the market for each time period.
This means if a property was listed during the Prior 7-12 month period and sold in the Current – 3 month period it would be counted as a Active Listing in the Prior 7-12 and Prior 4-6 Months period then as a Sale in the Current – 3 months time period.
