Market Value Appraisals
(§ 194 BauGB)
These are required for a wide range of very different purposes. As a rule, the aim is to determine the most probable purchase price under normal market conditions.
Appraisals for Capital Management Companies as defined in the KAGB
Since 2013, alternative investment funds (AIF) have been regulated by the German government under the German Investment Act (KAGB). The regulations relating to property appraisal are particularly noteworthy.
Beleihungswertgutachten
(§ 16 PfandBG)
The mortgage lending value of a property provides banks with a reliable estimate of the credit risk in real estate financing.
Project Development Appraisals
An appraisal of land value is normally prepared taking into account the existing state of development. There are, however, some exceptions.
Portfolio Appraisals
Wird eine größere Anzahl von Immobilien innerhalb eines Rechtsgeschäfts gehandelt, spricht man von einem Portfoliogeschäft, bei dessen Wertermittlung die Immobilien – je nach Wunsch bzw. rechtlicher Anforderung – entweder einzeln oder als Gesamtheit zu bewerten sind.
Insurance Appraisals
In accordance with § 88 of the German Insurance Contract Act (VVG), the insured value is defined as the amount that the policyholder has to pay at the time of the occurrence of the insured event for the replacement or restoration of the insured asset in its new condition, less the reduction in value resulting from the difference between old and new.
Indications of Value
An indication of value is generally understood to be a roughly estimated determination of the value level or a value range on the basis of the documents and information provided by the client and used as a basis without inspection.
Court and Arbitration Appraisals
Publicly appointed and certified appraisers often play an important role in civil and criminal proceedings as a result of their professional expertise. The §§ 402 ff. ZPO, for example, regulate the evidence to be provided by experts in civil proceedings.
Determination of the Appropriate and Legally Permissible Ground Rent (ErbbauRG)
When ground leases are created, the amount of the ground rent to be paid as well as provisions for adjustments over time are normally specified in the ground lease contract.
Plausibility Check of Third Party Appraisals
As a matter of principle, appraisal reports cannot claim to be absolute, as they are based on the interpretation and assessment of the value-determining factors identified by the appraiser.
Appraisal Opinions
In contrast to a full appraisal report, an appraisal opinion is a factually sound assessment of only one individual aspect of an appraisal problem.

Service Fees
Fees for appraisal reports are generally freely negotiable. As a rule, they are based on the amount of the value determined, the complexity of the appraisal (e.g. multiple appraisal dates, rights and encumbrances on the property, etc.) as well as any additional work involved in recording the value-relevant characteristics.
Our aim is to deliver the highest quality appraisal reports. This is why we waive the reimbursement of short appraisals. The fee policy can be found here.
