Property valuation: what you need to know
A valuation is not a number for a listing. It is a decision tool for selling, buying, letting or financing.
01
What a valuation examines
It examines the property, condition, area and genuinely comparable transactions. Size, year of construction and location adjust the result.
The valuation must explain its assumptions. Without explanation, the price is just an opinion.
02
How it is used
For a sale, it supports pricing. For a purchase, it shows whether an offer is reasonable. For financing, it follows specific standards.
The same valuation can lead to different strategies. The point is to know what you are buying or selling.
“A valuation is worth it when it can be explained.”
