Approaches to Value
Three Approaches
to Value
IHA relies on industry-standard approaches to ensure comprehensive, reliable and defensible commercial valuations.
Income Approach
Based on the principle that the value of a property is directly related to its income. We employ both Direct Capitalization and Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analyses.
- → Direct Capitalization
- → Discounted Cash Flow (DCF)
Sales/Direct Comparison
Analyzes recent sales of comparable commercial properties, adjusting for differences in location, size, amenities and market conditions to estimate market value.
- → Market transaction analysis
- → Adjusted per-square-foot benchmarks
Cost Approach
Based on the principle that property value should not exceed the cost of constructing a substitute of equivalent utility, less depreciation.
- → Replacement cost estimation
- → Accrued depreciation analysis
