THE VALUE QUAGMIRE

  • The Appraiser’s Dilemma: Now that comparable sales are few and far between, and with the economic, financing and investment climate in a state of constant flux, appraisers will certainly be in high demand in 2010. But questions remain over the best method of valuing commercial real estate today. Will property owners and lenders turn to appraisers or brokers when it comes to pinning down a number? What will be the impact of the FASB’s proposed changes to lease accounting, and is the industry doing to prepare? How has the appraiser’s world changed after this turbulent cycle?
  • A Return to Value Add: Properties are no longer appreciating by their mere existence. This means investors have to focus more on improving values through savvy approaches to operations as well as asset and property management.
