Commercial Appraisals for Industrial Buildings

Appraising industrial buildings and properties is crucial for determining their value and making informed decisions. The appraisal process involves a comprehensive evaluation of various factors that contribute to the overall worth of an industrial building.  In selecting a commercial appraiser, expertise in evaluating the property type in this specific field is vital.  Additionally, a strong background in market analysis is essential for accurately appraising the value of industrial properties.  Look no further! We have prepared hundreds of commercial appraisals over the last few years on a wide range of properties including but not limited to single tenant warehouse properties, single tenant office/warehouse properties, multi-tenant properties, flex office/warehouse properties, larger warehouse buildings and manufacturing and distribution facilities. 

The commercial appraisal process for industrial properties involves a thorough examination of various factors to determine the value of an industrial building or property.  One important component of the report is the market analysis, which assesses the current state of the real estate market and how it relates to the property being appraised. This analysis includes evaluating comparable sales, rental rates, vacancy rates, and other economic indicators that can affect value.  Additionally, the appraisal report will provide detailed information about the property itself, including its physical characteristics, condition, and any improvements made. It may also include information on zoning regulations and any environmental concerns. 

Three Approaches (Methods) considered in the commercial appraisal process of an industrial property are: 

  1. The Cost Approach considers the expenses associated with constructing a similar property.  In this approach, we estimate the cost to construct a similar industrial building from scratch, taking into account factors such as land acquisition, materials, labor, and permits. By analyzing these costs and adjusting for depreciation, we can determine an accurate value for the property. 
  1. The Sales Comparison Approach involves comparing the property to similar sales in the market. By conducting a thorough market analysis and property inspection, we can identify comparable properties that have recently sold.  These properties should be similar in terms of location, size, condition, and amenities. We then analyze the sale prices of these comparable properties to determine an appropriate value for our subject property.  The market analysis allows us to assess current trends and conditions in the industrial industry. It helps us understand how supply and demand factors may impact property values. Additionally, the property inspection enables us to identify any unique features or characteristics of our subject property that may affect its value. 
  1. The Income Approach is commonly used in the valuation process of commercial properties, including gas stations. The Income Approach focuses on the potential income generated by the property and calculates its value based on this cash flow analysis.  There are five key aspects of the Income Approach: Gross Potential Income, Effective Gross Income, Operating Expenses, Net Operating Income, Capitalization Rate.

FAQ to Texas Commercial Appraisals

How to pay lower Commercial Appraisal fees?

The most important step to avoiding additional expenses is hiring your Commercial Appraiser directly. DO NOT order from an AMC (appraisal management company) that will add 20-40% on top of the appraiser’s fee. AMC’s often assign the appraisal report to random inexperienced appraisers because they bid lowest. We have competitive appraisal fees because we have eliminated “middlemen” which also reduces report completion times.

Be aware that many of these “management companies” are in other states operated by personnel with NO APPRAISAL EXPERIENCE OR LICENSES. It is important to ask any Appraisal Company about local licensing, qualifications, and experience prior to engaging them for any commercial appraisal assignment.
