Property valuation is an integral part of any property transaction in Singapore. Whether it is an HDB flat, condominium, landed property, or retail space, a valuation report of the property’s fair market value serves as a vital benchmark for buyers and sellers to negotiate over the property price.
By understanding the property value, sellers can know how much the property is valued and what goes into its valuation. Meanwhile, potential buyers can rest easy knowing that the property is available to them at a ‘fair value’. This helps avoid pricing disputes during negotiations.
Property valuation reports play a crucial role in understanding the true value of a property, whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or manage real estate assets. A professional property valuation provides an accurate assessment of a property’s current market value, ensuring that decisions are based on reliable data. This process helps individuals and businesses make informed choices, whether for investment, securing financing, or managing tax obligations.
For buyers and sellers, a property valuation ensures transparency and confidence during transactions. Buyers gain insights into a property’s fair market value, preventing overpayment, while sellers can price their property competitively to attract the right offers. Valuations offer clarity and peace of mind, ensuring both parties enter negotiations from a position of knowledge.
Investors rely on property valuations to gauge the potential return on investment (ROI). By understanding the true market value of a property, investors can make strategic decisions about acquisitions, developments, or portfolio diversification. Accurate valuations help to minimise risks and maximise potential profits.
Banks and financial institutions often require property valuations when granting loans or mortgages. Additionally, property valuations are important for tax assessments, ensuring that property owners comply with tax regulations and avoid overpaying property taxes.

A property valuation report estimates an asset’s monetary value based on factors like transaction prices, condition, renovations, and orientation at a specific time. It’s crucial in real estate for determining market value but should be seen as an initial assessment, not an official appraisal or substitute for professional advice in legal transactions.
With over 100 years of combined valuation experience, our team is well-equipped to assist you with the valuation reports of your property. We specialise in the valuation of the following properties in Singapore:
When determining the value of an estate, we consider several key factors to provide an accurate assessment. These include the property’s location, size, and condition, along with recent comparable sales in the area. Other aspects like the property’s age, any renovations, and its proximity to amenities such as schools and transportation are also taken into account. Additionally, we evaluate market trends and economic factors that can influence property value. Our goal is to provide a fair and realistic valuation that reflects current market conditions.
Our team specialises in providing valuation reports for a wide range of real estate types, including residential, commercial, industrial, and retail properties. We have extensive experience in valuing properties of all sizes and complexities.
The timeframe for a property valuation can vary depending on the complexity and type of the property. We recommend promptly providing our team with the essential documents and information to ensure timely and thorough service to meet your valuation needs.

In this fast-paced digital era, banks are embracing new technology to speed up the home loan process for homebuyers. With this objective in mind, United Overseas Bank (UOB) entered into an exclusive partnership with CKS Property Consultants to develop an Automated Valuation Model (AVM) in support of its digital real estate ecosystem.
The AVM is a software program that uses robust methodology and sophisticated algorithms to instantly generate an indicative value for a specified property. Using proprietary algorithms that have been rigorously built and tested by a team of licensed appraisers and based on latest transactional data, the AVM allows users quick and easy access to indicative valuations for their residential properties anytime, anywhere.
In 2018, UOB successfully launched the UOB Home Solution platform, featuring the first bank-backed instant property valuation service in Singapore, developed by CKS.
