How to assess a value of a commercial property without Comps

Member since 2019 · 1 post · 0 votes

Hi, I need a help on assessing a commercial property value without comps. The property is in NY state, not rural area, but since there is no similar properties nearby, no comps available. Or I just don't know how to get the comps. Appraiser is asking me for 3 comps. :)

Can someone here help out? Many thanks!

    It will help a lot if you tell us a bit more about the property. Is it Land, Office, Farm, Retail  Commercial property is extremely broad

    You can evaluate without comps as you can use income and re construction cost..  But it depends on the property

    The appraiser is asking you for comps?  That's unusual.

    @Lina Choi asset type would be helpful, but use some different methods - define the competitive set / ie what are similar properties listed for. What is the income, or would it be if leased / apply a market cap rate. If this is MF, what is the price per door?

    I usually use 2 or 3 methodologies. The appraiser is going to need the comps though... call local brokers, see what you can dig up.
