Stewart Valuation Intelligence (SVI), a Stewart Information Services Corporation company (NYSE: STC), announced today that it has acquired Nationwide Appraisal Network, LLC (NAN), a nationally recognized appraisal management company with more than two decades of leading and shaping the appraisal industry.

“The addition of NAN strengthens SVI by expanding our appraisal scale and deepening our talent base,” said Fred Eppinger, Stewart CEO. “NAN shares our commitment to service excellence, quality, and strong client relationships, and this transaction reinforces our investment in valuation services within our Real Estate Solutions segment. We remain dedicated to delivering high quality, scalable solutions to a larger customer base across the mortgage ecosystem.”

“We are excited to welcome the talented team from NAN,” said Aaron Fowler, President – SVI. “Their strong customer focus and service-driven reputation make them a natural fit with our existing valuation and appraisal teams. By bringing our organizations together, we are building on a shared foundation while creating new opportunities to better serve our clients across the valuation landscape.”

For SVI, the acquisition enhances market presence and operational capacity while adding a highly experienced team with deep appraisal and valuation expertise. For NAN, joining Stewart provides the financial strength and stability of a publicly traded organization, along with access to broader enterprise resources, advanced technology, and expanded capabilities.

“NAN has spent the last 22 years building something they can be incredibly proud of—becoming one of the most trusted AMCs in the country,” said Joni Pilgrim, former CEO of Nationwide Appraisal Network. “Stewart is the right next chapter for NAN, aligning with a team that shares their commitment to service and doing things the right way.”
