The type of property (HDB flat, condominium, landed house, etc.) and its location are crucial. Different areas and types of properties have varying demand and pricing.
The size of the property, including the floor area and the number of rooms, as well as the layout and condition of the property, are important considerations.
The age of the property and its current condition, including any renovations or upgrades, can significantly impact its value.
Proximity to amenities such as schools, public transport, shopping centers, and recreational facilities can influence the property's value. For condominiums, the availability of facilities like swimming pools, gyms, and security services is also considered.
Valuers look at recent transaction prices of similar properties in the same area to gauge the current market value. Tools like EdgeProp's Edge Fair Value can provide insights into past transactions and market trends.
For properties that generate income, such as rental properties, the valuation is based on the net operating income and the capitalization rate.
For properties with development potential, such as vacant land or properties with redevelopment opportunities, the valuation considers factors like construction costs, land costs, developer's profit, and fees to authorities.
For HDB flats, the remaining lease period is a significant factor, as it affects the property's value and potential for future resale.
