Property Valuation
Property valuation is the estimation of what a building is worth, from comparable sales, from the income it produces, or from the cost to replace it.
Why It Matters
Valuations set loan limits and fund performance, and because they are assessed rather than traded, they can lag the market they claim to measure.
