Valuation of inherited property

If an estate includes land, a villa, a building or another property asset, a professional valuation provides an independent opinion of value for a defined purpose and date, supported by relevant market evidence.

When is a valuation useful?

• Before making a decision about inherited property.
• When heirs need to understand current market value.
• When a report is needed for a specific estate-related purpose.
• When an estate contains multiple properties, each with different characteristics.

What can be valued?

Residential and commercial land, villas, residential and commercial buildings, investment properties and other real estate within the agreed scope.

Getting started

Share the location, property type, area and available ownership information, together with the valuation purpose and intended users. Additional documents may be needed depending on the property.

How the assignment works

1. Agree the purpose, intended users, basis of value, valuation date and scope.
2. Review property information and available documents.
3. Inspect the property as required and analyse relevant market evidence.
4. Select and apply appropriate valuation methods.
5. Prepare a report documenting assumptions, reasoning and the opinion of value.

What the report includes

The scope, property details, basis and date of value, methodology, evidence, relevant assumptions and the valuer's conclusion.

Does a valuation replace legal estate procedures?

No. A valuer estimates property value and prepares a technical report. Inheritance procedures, allocation of legal shares and legal disputes remain matters for the relevant authorities and legal advisers.
