Our expertise also includes valuation of unique natural areas and acreages devoted to farming and recreational development (marinas, ski hills, golf courses, campgrounds).
The Process of Land Valuation
A broader analysis that encompasses a wider range of variables must be studied by an appraiser when calculating values for vacant land. One of the key considerations is determining what the land can be used for, or the feasibility of the specific planned development. Once the highest and best use is determined, there are six different methods of valuing vacant land.
- Sales comparison
- Market extraction
- Allocation
- Direct capitalization: land residual method
- Direct capitalization: ground rent capitalization
- Yield capitalization: subdivision development method (discounted cash flow analysis)
Vacant land appraisals require more detailed information and a higher level of expertise that may include identifying trends in development as well as research on competitors in order to provide an accurate valuation.
