    Study Notes

    Real Estate Appraisal: A Review of Valuation Methods

    • Real estate valuation is central to all business operations
    • Land and property value is determined by demand and use
    • Valuation assesses the worth of a property on a particular date
    • Valuations are needed for various purposes, including sales, transfers, taxes, expropriation, and inheritance.

    Valuation Methods

    • Methods are categorized as traditional and advanced
    • Traditional methods include regression models, comparable, cost, income, profit, and contractor's methods
    • Advanced methods include ANNs, hedonic pricing, spatial analysis, fuzzy logic, and ARIMA models

    Introduction

    • Real property encompasses all interests, rights, benefits, and encumbrances associated with land ownership.
    • Real estate valuations quantitatively determine the benefits and liabilities of ownership

    Players in the Real Estate Market

    • Real estate agents
    • Appraisers
    • Assessors
    • Mortgage lenders
    • Brokers
    • Property developers
    • Investors and fund managers
    • Market researchers and analysts
    • Shopping centre owners and operators
    • Other specialists and consultants

    Market Value

    • Market value accurately estimates the price a property would fetch in the open market

    • The model should reflect market conditions at the valuation time

    • Valuation in property markets involves determining the likely trading price of a building, which is often referred to as valuation.

    • Market value considers legal interest, physical condition, market timing, and potential buyers

    Valuation Methods

    • Comparable (sales comparison) method is the most widely used

    • Valuers select comparable properties recently sold

    • Prices are adjusted based on differences in size, age, quality, and location

    • Adjusted prices are used to arrive at an estimated value for a property.

    • Valuation methods are influenced by the unique market customs of each country

    • Investment/income method assesses property based on rent potential

    • Profits method analyzes profit potential

    • Development/residual method values sites for redevelopment

    • Contractor's method estimates value based on construction costs

    Advanced Valuation Methods

    • Artificial neural networks (ANNs) replicate the learning processes of the human brain

    • ANNs analyze vast data to predict real estate prices

    • Multiple regression models predict variables based on observations

    • Hedonic pricing models analyze differentiated goods value based on features

    • Spatial analysis methods use geographical information systems to understand neighborhood influences on value using geographic information systems

    • Spatial statistics for modeling spatial patterns and spatial dependence

    Fuzzy Logic

    • Fuzzy logic permits nuanced valuation judgments by expressing values between 0 and 1 on a continuum
    • Fuzzy logic enables nuanced valuation judgments through similarity mappings
    • This method reflects property attributes
    • Fuzzy sets enable approximation of continuous math functions

    Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA)

    • ARIMA models combine autoregressive (AR) and moving average (MA) models
    • They can be used to predict property values over time.
    • ARIMA models can be adapted for non-stationary data using differencing
    • These analyses help to predict property value using time-series observations.
