Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods provide an Automated Valuation Model (AVM). The AVM includes one or more operations including providing a portal coupleable to a network interface, obtaining a plurality of valuations associated with a subject property via the portal, receiving at least one weighting factor associated with one or more of the plurality of valuations from a user via the portal, applying the least one weighting factor to each of the plurality of valuations, determining a combined value estimate using the weighted plurality of valuations, generating one or more sets of property information responsive to the combined value estimate, and transmitting the generated one or more sets of property information via the portal.

Abstract: A sealing arrangement is provided for sealing an orifice between an interior and an exterior surface of an electronic module. An air-permeable, water-impermeable membrane is disposed in the orifice. A portion of the exterior surface is provided with at least one surface channel which extends between the orifice and a distant point. A protective cover is attached to the exterior surface and arranged to overlie the membrane disposed about the orifice but not to overlie the distant point, thereby providing an air path to the interior surface of the module, via the surface channel and the membrane.
