Our wide selection of valuation services are available across South Africa, with our head office being in Gauteng, with offices in Durban, Cape Town and Eastern Cape. They are geared towards providing property owners with accurate, up-to-date information as to the various values of their property and belongings. Knowledge of the value of your assets will help to protect yourself from financial loss in the event of insurance claims, or when paying municipal rates, or selling or letting.

At VZ Valulation we use various different methodologies to valuate your property, for example income producing properties require the utilisation of a detailed discounted cash flow analysis or the first years income capitalisation method. Specialised properties require the use of specialised methodologies and the comparable sales method is used for the valuation of residential properties and land etc. For insurance purposes, the estimated new replacement cost method is utilised and the depreciated replacement cost method can be utilised for market value purposes, where properties of a special or unique nature are encountered.

Informed agents and brokers are able to provide an opinion as to the value of a property, however only registered Valuers are able to provide market valuations which have legal standing.
