Computer Assisted Mass Appraisal (CAMA), is a kind of software platform designed to help Real Estate professionals do appraisals and calculate taxes, in short: a specialized database and stats builder. Patriot Properties, a Massachusetts-based company, has specialized in creating and developing these suites, and also to customize them to suit each client’s specific needs in accordance to state regulations.
By visiting the site, prospective buyers can read information on the capabilities and features of the suites, though unfortunately there are no demos to watch or trials to download, which are a very powerful means to transmit the worth and usability of the software, especially for a target-audience of professionals who might be weary of being able to substitute long-term usage of tools for a different system altogether. Also worthy of note is the sloppy design of the site, which does not handle Firefox really well, a thing that highlights yet another problem I found in the marketing strategies of the site: how come there is not one word on the system requirements of the CAMAs on offer?
