Data Sources Useful in the Valuation of Investment Real Estate

We recently completed a compilation of 22 tips and 37 websites that are of interest to commercial real estate investors.  Although it was originally written to assist appraisers and property tax assessors, property owners, investors, and asset managers will benefit for several reasons, including:

• -- Giving them a peek behind the curtain to reveal how appraisers and local assessors approach the valuation of there investment properties; and
  
• 
  
• -- Providing them an opportunity to employ some of the mass-appraisal techniques used by assessors to quickly value a large portfolio of properties or identify investment opportunities.
  

Entitled “Data Sources for the Valuation of Commercial and Industrial Properties” the fact sheet is an effective way to outline your data sources for monitoring real estate investment opportunities and trends, and can be used as a means of contacting these sources for useful information.

The full-text fact sheet is free when you sign up to receive our Commercial Real Estate newsletter, a monthly e-mail to subscribers that notifies commercial property owners and investors of items of interest related to real estate valuation, tax compliance, and tax management.  A two page sample of the fact sheet can be viewed by clicking here.
