Commercial property valuation: what do you pay and when is it necessary?

Why the price differs so much

With a residential home, a valuation is fairly standardised. With commercial real estate, the valuer also assesses lease agreements, market rent, yields, and sometimes the operation. A small, vacant unit is therefore valued much faster than a leased office with five tenants.

Indication of costs

Indicatively, a simple report starts around €1,500 excluding VAT; for complex or large objects, this can rise to over €5,000. Rates are free, so always request a few quotes and state the purpose of the valuation.

What determines the price?

• Surface area and number of lettable units
• Number and complexity of the lease agreements
• Purpose: financing and fiscal valuation set stricter requirements
• Special object, such as a sports hall, catering property, or building with a residence
• Desired delivery time

When can you do without?

Do you only want to know what your property will fetch upon sale? Then a valuation is not mandatory. A buyer performs their own valuation.
