Understanding Commercial Property 
Valuation
• A commercial property valuation provides an 
independent assessment of a property's market 
value.

potential and relevant market evidence to prepare 
a detailed valuation report.

How Commercial Valuers Determine Value
Commercial property valuation is a multi-stage process 
involving property investigation, market research and 
valuation analysis.
Depending on the property and valuation purpose, 
valuers may use:
•  Cost approach
•  Sales comparison approach
•  Income capitalisation approach
•  Gross Rent Multiplier
•  Hypothetical development approach 
Cost Approach
The cost approach considers the cost associated with 
reproducing or replacing improvements.
The assessment may consider:
•  Land value
•  Construction costs
•  Building materials
•  Improvements
•  Depreciation
•  Site characteristics
This methodology can be useful for particular commercial 
property types.
Sales Comparison Approach
The sales comparison approach considers comparable 
properties and relevant transaction evidence.
Commercial valuers examine similarities and differences 
involving:
•  Location
•  Property type
•  Land and building size
•  Condition
•  Use
•  Market conditions
Comparable evidence can provide important support for 
a valuation conclusion.
 Income Capitalisation Approach
The income capitalisation approach focuses on the 
income-producing capacity of a commercial property.
The assessment can consider:
•  Net operating income
•  Rental income
•  Operating expenses
•  Capitalisation rates
•  Market evidence
This approach is particularly relevant when assessing 
income-producing commercial investments.
Gross Rent Multiplier
The Gross Rent Multiplier (GRM) can be used as a 
comparative valuation technique.
A basic formula is:
GRM = Comparable Sale Price ÷ Annual Gross Rental 
Income
The resulting multiplier can then be considered alongside 
the property's rental income and other market evidence.
Factors Affecting Commercial Property 
Value
Commercial property valuers may assess numerous factors, including:
•  Location
•  Property size
•  Land characteristics
•  Building condition
•  Zoning
•  Property use
•  Rental income
•  Lease terms
•  Comparable sales
•  Market conditions
A combination of these factors contributes to the final valuation 
analysis.
Location and Commercial Value
Location is an important consideration in commercial 
property valuation.
Factors can include:
•  Accessibility
•  Transport infrastructure
•  Nearby businesses
•  Customer access
•  Commercial activity
•  Local amenities
•  Surrounding development
Brisbane commercial valuers use local market knowledge 
alongside property-specific research.
Rental Income and Property Value
For income-producing properties, rental performance can 
be an important valuation consideration.
Valuers may examine:
•  Current rental income
•  Market rental levels
•  Lease conditions
•  Occupancy
•  Operating expenses
•  Income sustainability
This information can support an income-based valuation 
assessment.
Commercial Property Valuation Reports
A professional commercial property valuation report can 
provide documented evidence supporting the assessed value.
Reports may contain information relating to:
•  Property description
•  Location
•  Site characteristics
•  Building improvements
•  Market research
•  Comparable evidence
•  Valuation methodology
•  Valuation conclusion
The scope of the report depends on its purpose.
Valuation for Buying or Selling
• A commercial valuation can support property 
transactions.
• For purchasers, valuation information can assist with 
due diligence.
• For vendors, an independent valuation can provide 
evidence about market value when preparing for a 
sale.
• Professional valuation reports can therefore form part 
of the broader transaction process.
Valuation for Mortgage and Finance
• Commercial property valuations may also be required 
for financing purposes.
• Lenders may require an independent assessment of 
property value when considering mortgage security.
• A professional valuation report can provide relevant 
property and market information for the intended 
purpose.
Valuation for Tax and Accounting
Commercial valuations can also be relevant to taxation 
and accounting requirements.
Depending on the circumstances, valuation services may 
support:
•  Taxation assessments
•  Capital gains considerations
•  Internal accounting
•  Financial reporting
•  Asset management
The appropriate valuation date and methodology depend 
on the specific assignment.
Independent Property Valuation
• An independent valuation is prepared using objective 
property and market information.
• The valuation process can involve detailed research 
into the property and comparable market evidence.
• Independent valuation services can be particularly 
important when a documented valuation is required 
for formal purposes. 
Certified Commercial Property Valuers
• Professional qualifications are an important 
consideration when selecting a valuer.

valuers are Certified Practising Valuers (CPVs)
