When we have a well-informed buyer and seller agreed on a price why/when do we need an appraisal and what goes into one?
Why do appraisals exist:
Usually at the request of a 3rd party like a lender who needs to assure (their shareholders) a property in their portfolio has “true” value.
Part of the sales agreement. Sometimes an appraisal is used to set the price or (like most sales contracts) there is a clause stating a sales price must “meet or beat” appraisal.
Risk-averse buyers – Governmental or non-profits chartered with the stewardship of public funds or donations in a prudently need to ensure they are paying a “fair” price for an asset.
An appraisal is an estimate of value made by an objective disinterested (i.e. neither in favor of the buyer or seller) party and considers multiple market factors.
What does an appraiser look at to establish real-world value?The object is to see if there is an “average” value of a similar property that has been recently purchased. They do this by looking at:
The operating numbers, condition and current use (i.e. can it be repurposed and bring higher value) of the property. This is used to determine a rate of return since commercial property is bought for investment purposes.
Comparable sales of similar properties to normalize/adjust pricing of the appraisal.
What makes a property “comparable” to the appraised property?
Proximity to appraised property (location makes a big difference in value).
Condition of the property (does it need a lot of CapEx just to make it average) will affect sales price.
Age. The average 70s vintage property sells for the min $/unit compared to other decades. [cf. The 5-year Portland sales history (on this WEBsite)]
Size – You have different types of buyers dependent on property size. Smaller buyers may place aesthetics over investment return.
Unit mix – Comparing an apartment with all studios vs. one with all 3 bed units is not representative.
Whether for an appraisal, your investment return or max sales price, you need to keep your property in good shape (for buyer/tenant appeal), stay on top of maintenance and maximize your NOI.
