62
can you run me through how you would do a profits valuation
1. Obtain 3 years accounts showing income, purchases, expenses 2. Determine fair maintainable turnover (for a reasonable occupier) 3. Deduct costs and expenses to calculate Fair maintainable operating profit FMOP 4. CAPITAL VALUE = FMOP X YP 5. RENTAL VALUE = FMOP = Divisible balance (50/50 Landlord and tenant)
63
why would you multiply the operating profit by the years purchase to calculate capital value?
- You have the yearly profit - The YP is the number of years profit it takes to attain the level of value of the property. - So multiplying the two gives you the overall value.
64
what are the principles behind the divisible balance
represents the amount to be shared between the tenant (tenant’s share) and the landlord (rent, or rateable value).
65
What is fair value
Amount which would be paid for an asset or to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

31 January 2022
90
Do you undertake any environmental checks before valuing?
``` Yes Ground contamination Previous site use Asbestos Flood risk Overhead power lines Invasive species ```
91
If you were to value a multi-let office how would you approach that?
Investment method – establish MR and PR and calculate values using term and reversion or hardcore approaches. Cross-check with comparable method DCF also good approach as can manipulate different icnomes as appropriate
92
Would your valuation change if the interest was held leasehold as apposed to freehold?
Depends on the situation. The price difference between a long leasehold vs freehold may not be substantial but the price difference between a short leasehold vs freehold property can be extremely significant. The same property, in the same location, is likely to be more expensive if it is sold with a freehold title than if it is sold with a leasehold.
93
What is hope value and how would you reflect in a valuation?
An element of market value in excess of the existing use value, reflecting the prospect of some more valuable future use. Could be reflected by an uplift in the £ per acre dependant on the likelihood of a new alternative use becoming more certain.
94
What is Estimated realisation price
Estimated Realisation Price", ("ERP") a basis of valuation to be used solely for loan valuation purposes. ERP is identical to OMV in representing an exchange price in the market place, but it differs on a number of points, two of which are fundamental. ‘Reasonably expected’ is retained in the ERP definition but the two fundamental points are: (i) the marketing period commences on the date of valuation, with the sale completed after a reasonable marketing period to be specified by the valuer. (ii) the market is dynamic and is not assumed to be static over the marketing period.
95
Criticisms of estimated realisation price
Can be quite subjective. Being asked to forecast value at some point in the future.
96
When can you take account of hope value?
Can be included in OMV if it would have been known to someone in open market.
97

102
What guidance is there on DCF?
RICS DCF information papers (2023) - RICS aim to support use of DCF but traditional still used
103
With the industrial in Wimbledon how would you approach the valuation it it was over rented?
I could adopt the hardcore method whereby a MR is taken into perpetuity with ARY then the top slide is valued by capitalising additional rent at YP years to leave event at an increased yield
104
When could you adopt the DCF approach?
When there are multiple income streams and rent reviews. when you want to show explicit inputs Can be used for appraisal purposes to calculate worth / INV value
105
Can you explain a typical DCF calculation?
1. Break the rent into income streams 2. apply growth by % to income stream 3. capitalise at a YP deferred by amount of years until the income is recievable 4. then apply PV multiplier to bring back to valuation date 5. total of NPVs is value or worth
106
What are some + and - of DCF
+ more info provided cross investment analysis specific cash flow issues can be considered transparency - dont always have info to complete DCF not widely used yet
107
Guidance on Residual Valuations?
Red Book IVS 410 - establish facts - assess development potential - planning knowledge
108
Tell me about the residual valuation you conducted on the Bungalow in Redhill.
When conducting a valuation for IHT purposes. i determined that there was development potential on a site with a dilpodated bungalow and therefore decided to adopt the residual method of valuation. I took a GDV and removed a number of costs such as construction, demolition and site costs, i also deducted fees at 7% of build costs, cost of aquisition, and profit and risk at 15% of GDV. This left the residual land value which i checked with comparable development land values. I then advised the client of my opinion of value along with the reasoning behind my approach. i advised of the limitations to my valuation in relation to its purpose.
109
Tell me about the valuation you did on the flat in Highgate.
I conducted a IHT valuation on a three bed flat in Highgate. After assessing the subjects lease terms i determined that it had a low unexpired term, i therefore decided it should be valued on a short lease basis. to calculate this i used the comparables method of valuation to determine the market value of a similar flat with a long unexpired term. This was then adjusted at 93.2% using the Savills Leasehold Enfranchisement Analysis of Relativity to determine a short lease value. i used this as the current market value for the subject.
110
Why should a property with a shorter unexpired term be adjusted downwards?
Typically the shorter the lease term the lower the value, because it is further departed from owning the freehold or virtual freehold of the property. The lease term refers to the amount of years the property is in your posession so the shorter the lease term the sooner you would lose pocession of the property. the adjustment reflects the value relative to owning the virtual freehold or a long lease term.
111
Why did you use Savills Analysis of Relativity?
Savills is based on 2015 data which is comparatively up to date, and they specialise in the London locality.
112
What advice did you give regarding the Industrial properties for Revaluation 2023.
I employed the comparables method of valuation to advise a senior colleague of the £/m2 to adopt for groups of Industrial properties in Kent, based on age, size and location. My advice allowed for the setting of Rateable values for the 2023 Rating List.

114
Outline how you would conduct a profits method valuation
1. FMT based on REO expectations 2. attain gross profit if needed 3. FMOP 4. capitalise FMOP 5. additions / deductions 6. Value 7. stand back and look - analyse by per bed etc
115
What docs are there regarding lease extensions?
The Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 but Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill - making it easier and cheaper to extend leases, currently in HOL- freeholder can only charge a peppercorn rent
116
What extra value may you add to a short leasehold?
Marriage value is the increase in the value of the property following the completion of the lease extension, reflecting the additional market value of the longer lease. In that this potential ‘profit’ only arises from the landlord’s obligation to grant the new lease, the legislation requires that it be shared equally between the parties.
117
Why did you not adjust for Marriage Value for your flat in Highgate?
I valued the property with a short lease as this was the situation a moment before death, as this is the valuation date. Because of the short unexpired term it would attract a lower value than a newly renewed lease.
118
What does it mean to be contracted out?
where the landlord and tenant make an agreement prior to entering into the lease to exclude the statutory rights under the 1954 Act and the tenant therefore loses their automatic right to renew their lease at the end of the lease term.
119
How could contracting out affect value?
Landlord may accept lower rent for lease to be contracted out, conversely the landlord may have greater bargaining power at renewal of a contracted out rent.
120
How would a landlord gain VP from the Act?
s.30 L+T Act 1954 a) breach of repairing covnant b) Persistent delay in paying rent c) Breaches of other obligations d) Availability of alternative accommodation e) possession required for letting or disposing of whole of property f) Landlord intends to demolish or reconstruct g) Landlord intends to occupy the premises themselves
