When do you need a commercial expertise?
Valuing a business is very different from residential valuation. The value depends not only on the property but also on the activity, turnover, clientele, commercial location and lease terms.
Business transfer
Determine the fair price for buyer and seller, on a solid methodological basis.
Commercial premises purchase
Value the premises independently of the business, considering the current lease and rental yield.
Leasehold rights
Calculate the value of leasehold rights for transfer or renewal.
Commercial disputes
Eviction compensation, lease termination, landlord-tenant disputes.
Company contribution / SCI
Value commercial real estate assets during company formation or transformation.
Methods specific to commercial real estate
Commercial valuation uses specific methods, different from those for residential properties:
Revenue method
Percentage of average turnover over the last 3 years, weighted by sector and location. The most common method for businesses.
Profit method (EBITDA)
Capitalization of Gross Operating Surplus, reflecting the real profitability of the activity.
Comparison method
Analysis of recent transactions of similar businesses in the same geographic area.
