What Kinds of Properties Need Commercial Real Estate Appraisals?

Properties that are eligible for a commercial appraisal include apartment buildings, office buildings, condominiums, industrial sites, shopping centers, and land that is up for sale. The information that comes from a commercial appraisal is needed when a property (building or land) is in the process of being developed, sold, insured, or mortgaged by a mortgage lender, a real estate brokerage, or a financial institution.

How is a Commercial Real Estate Appraisal Executed?

A commercial appraisal is conducted by a certified appraiser who is tasked with gathering and analyzing information on the property. This data is used to determine the value of the property for the client – a lender, broker, or financial institution. Like all appraisals, a commercial appraisal report must satisfy the state and federal requirements such as USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice) as well as the client’s specifications. No appraisal is ever the same as another.

When Do I Need a Commercial Appraisal?

Here are a few situations where a commercial appraisal report could come in handy.

  • Establishing a value for a mortgage
  • Aiding in lease negotiations
  • Assessing property for tax purposes
  • Business dissolutions resulting in the sale or exchange of property
  • Estimating value for a construction or renovation project
  • In appealing a tax assessment
  • Advising city planners and zoning boards for proposed property changes.
  • The government acquisition of property for public use
  • Determining property damage from weather conditions
  • Corporate mergers and acquisitions
  • Negotiations between buyers and sellers during a commercial real estate transaction
  • Gifted or inherited property that is taxable
  • Generating a liquidation value for auction or forced-sale proceedings
  • The Commercial Process at a Glance

The commercial real estate appraisal process begins once the appraiser has collected information such as the intended use of the property and any relevant characteristics including the condition of the property. Then, the scope of work is established, where the appraiser determines what kind of information and how much will be needed to generate a value on the property. This information could include data on the area’s market and comparable properties. The appraiser collects, verifies, and analyzes the data, creates an informed opinion on the value of the property, and produces a commercial appraisal report. The fees for a commercial appraisal can vary depending on the size of the property and the scope of the appraisal.

Examples of Commercial Appraisal Valuation Strategies

The value of a commercial property can be determined in a variety of ways – consistently being built on a foundation of data from a certified appraiser. Below are three common approaches that are used to appraise the value of a commercial real estate property.

Cost Approach

An appraiser using this method equates the value of this property with the cost of building a replica. They take depreciation into consideration to create a fair market valuation. This approach is typically for new and unique properties that have few comparable properties.

Sales Comparison/Market Approach

An appraiser proceeds based on the assumption that a buyer will pay based on what comparable properties have sold for. This process is best for properties that have many properties similar to it in terms of size, condition, location, floor plan, etc.

Income Capitalization Approach

A lender and the appraiser use past data to forecast how much income a property will make over time. This method is typically used for properties like large apartment buildings, office buildings, and shopping centers. This helps the investor better determine when their investment will be repaid.
