Commercial and Industrial Appraisals
A commercial or industrial appraisal is a defensible and carefully documented opinion of value. This is most commonly derived analyzing the three generally accepted of methods of valuation i.e. Sales Comparison Approach, Income Approach and Cost Approach. These appraisals can only be prepared by a Certified, General Real Estate Appraiser who is licensed in a particular state; Assessment Evaluation is licensed in both Pennsylvania and New York to perform such appraisals. There is another license which limits the appraiser to single-family dwellings or smaller residential apartments that are less than five (5) units. The appraisers at Assessment Evaluation, Inc. are certified to perform these more complex types of reports.
The appraisal analyzes many factors depending on the client’s needs, property type, scope of work, use and user of the appraisal. Generally, an appraisal will provide an overview of the current economic conditions and market area, a description of the property including the site and buildings, an analysis of the highest and best use of the property, and an in-depth discussion of the valuation from the approaches used in the appraisal.
