Types of Property Valuation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nDuring the buying or selling process, you may come across various distinct sorts of valuation, each serving a particular function. Here are various types of property valuation you should take note of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#1. Property valuation <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
A property appraisal shows you how much your house is worth if you were to sell it. For residential property, the process is often extremely simple – you can do this through an estate agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#2. Online Valuation <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
It is feasible to obtain an online valuation from the comfort of your own home. This calculation is done by a computer (not a human) depending on your location, property type, and current market pricing. They can be used as a very rough reference to provide you with additional information when selling your home. You should also keep in mind that they may as accurate as a property appraisal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#3. Matrimonial Valuation <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
In divorce or separation procedures, matrimonial valuations are used by the courts to decide how the couple’s assets will be distributed. These are often carried out by a licensed surveyor or valuer who has been jointly selected by the divorcing spouse, and their report is submitted immediately to the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#4. Probate Valuation <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Following a death, you may need to obtain a probate valuation of any property or assets owned by the dead in order to calculate inheritance tax. The government (through HMRC) strongly advises hiring a professional surveyor for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#5. Mortgage Valuation <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
A mortgage valuation, also known as a simple value, typically consists of a fast half-hour survey of the property that covers any evident faults without delving too far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When you apply for a mortgage, the lender will make its own estimate of the worth of the house you want to buy in order to make a preliminary decision on how much they’re willing to lend you for a mortgage – but more crucially, it might offer you a very approximate sense of how much you should be spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When selling or purchasing a home, it is critical to supplement the mortgage valuation with a proper building assessment from a professional surveyor – determine whether you will need a homebuyers report or a building survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#6. Retrospect Valuations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
A retroactive valuation, which establishes the worth of your home on a given date in the past, maybe required for tax purposes, if you are involved in legal processes, or if you need to establish a value for probate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#7. Taxation valuations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
If your transaction is subject to capital gains tax, a tax valuation will assist you in determining how much you must pay. Understanding what you owe in capital gains tax can be difficult, which is why many people hire a professional valuer. In order to calculate stamp duty, the Inland Revenue may also need a professional tax assessment to be provided in writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#8. Expert Witness Valuations <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
If you are involved in property dispute litigation, an expert witness can give a professional, trustworthy survey that may be submitted to or rely on in court. This comprises a value, a list of any concerns or defects with the property, and information regarding your lease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#9. Insurance Valuing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
When a surveyor evaluates your home, he or she may also perform an insurance appraisal. The goal is to determine the insurance worth of your property based on whether it would cost more to rebuild than the average market construction price if it was bulldozed, burned down, or damaged beyond repair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#10. Building Reinstatement Valuations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
This is part of your insurance appraisal – calculating the cost of rebuilding your property if it is damaged beyond repair, including any insurance risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commercial Property Valuation<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\nTo arrive at a valuation, specific data pertaining to commercial property. As well as general statistics pertaining to the nation, region, city, and neighborhood in which the property is located are collected and examined. To determine the value of a commercial property, professional appraisers utilize one of these methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Method 1: The Sales Comparison Approach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This is a method of estimating a property’s value by comparing it to recently sold properties with similar attributes.It’s also known as the market data approach. In the commercial valuation appraisal process, at least three or four comparables should be considered. When choosing comparables, the most important aspects to consider are size, comparable characteristics, and – probably most importantly location, which can have a significant impact on a property’s market value. Comparables are properties that have similar characteristics and must meet the following criteria in order to make a legitimate comparison:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Building age and condition<\/li>
- Home size<\/li>
- Lot size, landscaping, building kind and quality, number and type of rooms, square feet of living space, hardwood flooring, a garage, kitchen upgrades, and other physical amenities.<\/li>
- Amenities in the house<\/li>
- The desirability of a location<\/li>
- Proximity to the home in question (the closer, the better)<\/li>
- Sale date: If there are economic changes between the date of sale of a comparable and the date of the appraisal, the date of sale is used. ( so, the more recent, the more accurate)<\/li>
- Terms and conditions of sale, such as whether the seller of a property was under duress or whether the property was sold between relatives (at a discounted price)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
In property valuation, the subject property’s market value estimate will fall within the range defined by the adjusted sales prices of the comparables. Because some of the modifications made to the comparables’ sales prices will be more subjective than others, the comparables with the least degree of adjustment are usually given more attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Method 2: Cost Analysis<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe cost approach can be used to determine the worth of properties that have had one or more buildings added to them. This method entails estimating the worth of the building(s) and the land separately, taking into account depreciation. The total value of the improved property is calculated by adding the estimations together. The cost method assumes that a reasonable buyer would not pay more for a renovated property than it would cost to purchase a comparable lot and build a comparable structure. When the property being appraised is a type that isn’t commonly sold and doesn’t create income, this method is effective. Schools, churches, hospitals, and government buildings are all examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Method 3: The Income Approach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This method, also known as the income capitalization approach, is based on the link between the rate of return required by an investor and the net income generated by a property. It’s used to figure out how much income-producing properties like apartment complexes, office buildings, and shopping malls are worth. When the subject property is expected to generate future revenue and its expenses are predictable and consistent, income capitalization appraisals can be quite simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ability to create money is what determines the value of various properties, such as apartment complexes or office buildings. It seems sensible to estimate the worth of these properties based on their earning potential. Direct capitalization and the gross income multiplier are two options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Direct capitalization <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nApartment buildings and commercial properties use direct capitalization. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gross Income Multiplier <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nFor single-family rental properties and small multifamily rentals, use the gross income multiplier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Examples<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nAn Appraiser is tasked with valuing a four-unit rental building. He tries both approaches of valuing income properties. He utilizes the following math when using the direct capitalization method:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Annual gross income: $48,000 ($4,000 per month) \u2013<\/li>
- Expenses each year: $20,000<\/li>
- $28,000 in net operating income<\/li>
- The local cap rate is 8%.<\/li>
- $28,000 x (100\/cap rate) = $350,000 estimated value<\/li>
- The gross income multiplier approach is then used. Local rental properties are selling for about 85 times the rent, he discovers. As a result, here’s how to do it:<\/li>
- Rent of $4,000 per month multiplied by 85 equals $340,000.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The straight capitalization approach is similar, but not identical. In this scenario, the Appraiser’s best judgment will determine which calculation is more appropriate and correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Price per door<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This commercial real estate appraisal approach is most commonly utilized for apartment buildings rather than single-family homes. This approach simply determines the value of the entire structure based on the number of units. A $4 million apartment complex, for example, would be valued at $200,000 “per door,” regardless of the size of each unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rentable square footage mixes usable square footage (the space tenants can occupy) with shared areas such as stairwells and elevators. Using this method, you may extrapolate the cost per rentable square foot, compare it to the average lease cost per square foot, and determine the worth of the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, if a property has 10,000 rentable square feet and the average cost to rent per square foot is $12 per square foot per year, a $1.7 million purchase price will give a 7% gross rental return. However, if you know you can demand $14 per square foot in annual rent, a $1.9 million valuation will offer the same gross return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Value Per Gross Rent Multiplier<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The Gross Rent Multiplier (GRM) valuation method calculates and analyzes a property’s potential value by dividing the purchase price by the gross revenue. In other words, if you paid $500,000 for a commercial property that generates $70,000 in gross rents each year, your GRM would be 7.14, or $500,000 \/ $70,000. This commercial real estate valuation formula is commonly used to find properties with inexpensive prices in relation to their market-based potential income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
