Valuation Services
Property valuation is the professional process of estimating the monetary worth of an interest in land or landed property, for a defined purpose, location, and time frame. Whether you're buying, selling, insuring, mortgaging, or settling an estate, an accurate valuation is the foundation every other decision is built on.
Kazeem Yusuf Consulting is a chartered Estate Surveying and Valuation firm, licensed to practice by the Estate Surveyors and Valuers Registration Board of Nigeria (ESVARBON), with our head of practice a registered member of the Nigeria Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers (NIESV). Our valuations are conducted using appropriate valuation methods and internationally approved standards, giving you a figure that holds up with banks, insurers, courts, and regulatory bodies.
What we value properties for
Sale or purchase — pricing a property correctly before it goes to market
Mortgage — independent valuations required by lenders before loan approval
Insurance — ensuring a property is neither under- nor over-insured
Probate — determining fair value for estate settlement and inheritance
Auction — setting a realistic reserve price
Compensation — for land acquired for public or private development projects
Rating and taxation — supporting accurate property tax assessments
Balance sheet and financial reporting — for companies reporting real estate assets
Our valuation process
- Instruction and scoping — we confirm the purpose of the valuation and the standard it needs to meet
- Site inspection — a physical inspection of the property, its condition, and its surroundings
- Market and comparable analysis — reviewing recent, comparable transactions and current market conditions
- Valuation and reporting — applying the appropriate method to arrive at a defensible opinion of value, documented in a formal report
Why work with a chartered valuer?
An unregistered or informal "valuer" may hand you a number, but it carries no professional weight and won't be accepted by banks, courts, or tax authorities. Always confirm that the firm and the signing valuer are registered with ESVARBON — this is what separates a professional valuation from a guess.
