Numerous methods are used to value property. The most common however is by looking at similar properties that are within the same area of the property under valuation. The value of the property is then determined. This approach is the market data approach. Another method is the cost approach where a building and the land it is on is checked for its cost and used to value the property.
Investment or income approach is the most preferred approach for investors. A ratio of the cost paid for the property and the income from that property is used. This better aids investors in determining whether a property is effective.
This effectively means the income that the property generates as compared to how much is spent on it. Investors can then determine how much they have to spend on the property and how much they can gain from the property and decide if it will be a quality investment.
