Market Analysis
Here is an overview of current market conditions relevant to the property. This includes:
- Comparative Property Sales: A review of recent sales of similar properties in the area, providing a benchmark for the property's value. This comparative analysis helps establish a market-driven value based on actual transactions.

Valuation Method
In this section, we explain the methodologies employed to arrive at the final value estimate. Common valuation methods include:
- Comparative Market Analysis (CMA): This method involves comparing the subject property to similar properties that have recently sold, adjusting for differences to determine a fair market value.
- Income Approach: This approach estimates value based on the income the property generates, typically used for investment properties. It involves calculating the net operating income (NOI) and applying a capitalisation rate to determine the property's value.
- Cost Approach: This method assesses the value based on the cost of replacing or reproducing the property minus depreciation. It is particularly useful for new or unique properties where comparable sales may not be available.

The final value estimate is the assessed market value of the property, presented clearly and concisely. This section includes:
- Value Conclusion: A definitive statement of the property's estimated market value supported by the analysis and methods outlined in the report.
