Q

How do you value an over rented property ?

A

Typically, I would use the hard core and top slice method of valuation.

I would value the current term of the property using YP for the remainder of the term. I would value the bottom slice by capitalizing market rent using YP into
Perp and add them both together

Q

What was your advise for the car park valuation

A
  • I looked for Car Park sales but evidence was limited
  • Evidence was commercial and sales value reflected income and not comparable to the subject,
  • To establish EUV I considered the deprival value and some else stepping to provide the same service as the occupier,
  • Therefore LA would need to acquire an alternative rural site
  • I found comparables of Rural Land sales and analysed them £/ha
  • I applied the appropriate rate/ha
  • I added for picnic tables and surfacing
  • I made adjustments for age and quality to arrive at my final value.
  • I wrote a report to the client proving my opinion of value.
