What is a short appraisal report?
It contains the essential basics and the valuation in compact form. You receive a well-founded statement on the value of your property that goes well beyond a mere estimate.
Who is it suitable for?
The short appraisal report is mostly used for private purposes, e.g. as an overview of assets, for family agreements or as a basis for negotiation. If a court or the tax office is involved, the detailed full market value appraisal is the better choice.
What the short report contains
You receive a structured description of the property, an assessment of the location, the key assumptions and the valuation derived from them. Extensive appendices and detailed derivations are deliberately left out – which keeps the document clear and quick to understand.
When you're better off with a full appraisal
As soon as a court, the tax office or an opposing party has a seat at the table, a condensed report is often not enough. In our initial conversation I'll tell you honestly which type makes sense for your purpose – and I'll recommend the bigger solution when it's needed.
Quick, yet well-founded
A short appraisal report is also based on a viewing, checked documents and current market data. The difference lies in the depth of analysis, not in the care taken.
