A prospective appraisal concludes value as of a future effective date, rather than a current or past date. Because the value is as of a date that has not yet arrived, the appraisal depends on stated assumptions about the conditions expected to prevail at that future date.
What the service involves
The assignment is an appraisal with a future effective date, concluded under a defined value definition and based on stated assumptions about the property and market conditions as of that date. The assumptions are central to the conclusion and are made explicit. The deliverable is a written appraisal report documenting the scope, assumptions, market evidence, and value conclusion.
When clients need this service
Owners, developers, investors, and lenders use prospective appraisals when a value is needed for a future point in time — for example, to support a financing decision tied to a future stabilized date, or to evaluate a development upon completion. The future effective date and assumptions are set to the specific decision.
What the analysis considers
The analysis considers the property's expected condition at the future date, the stated assumptions about market conditions then, the applicable value definition, and the intended use. The valuation approaches applied depend on the property type and data; not every assignment uses all three approaches. The conclusion depends on the assumptions and is not a prediction or guarantee of future value.
Documents and information that may help
Not every item below is mandatory for every assignment. The records that matter depend on the property and the agreed scope; we will confirm what is needed during the initial discussion.
- Property information and any proposed changes by the future date
- The future effective date and the intended use
- Assumptions about market conditions at that date
- Pro forma or projected income, if applicable
- Intended users of the appraisal
How the engagement works
We begin by discussing the future date and the assumptions you want applied to confirm scope. After agreeing on scope, we research market conditions, analyze the data under the stated assumptions, and deliver a written appraisal report documenting the assumptions and conclusion. Scope, fees, and timing depend on the property and the complexity of the assumptions.
