Vacant Lot Appraisal and Agricultural Land Appraisals

Kohlen & Co. Appraisals has proven expertise in the area of land appraisal for various forms of real estate in the Williams Lake region. Our vacant land appraisal services include residential, small ranch, agricultural land and building appraisals for rural areas, acreages and ranches for farming or recreational development.

Land Value Estimator

A broader analysis that encompasses a wider range of variables must be studied by an appraiser when calculating values for vacant land. One of the key considerations is determining what the land can be used for, or the feasibility of the specific use. Once the ‘highest and best use’ is determined, the standard sales comparison method is used for market analysis.

Vacant land appraisals require more detailed information and a high level of expertise that may include trends in new construction and research on competitors in similar development markets in order to provide accurate cost and profit analysis reports.

Land Appraisal Service

Kohlen & Co. Appraisals can provide a comprehensive appraisal report for your vacant residential land appraisal needs.

Appraisals offers specialized services that include appraisals for both vacant land and small scale agricultural land in the Williams Lake region that can be customized for:

  • Purchase/Sales
  • Development feasibility analysis
  • Estates
  • Litigation

Zoning Research

Kohlen & Co. Appraisals’s qualified experts begin research on zoning regulations laws in the specific areas to properly verify whether vacant land is listed as residential, commercial or industrial and to ensure that no building plans or approvals are already placed on the property.

Sales Comparisons

Unlike sales comparisons used in standard residential and commercial real estate market evaluations, Kohlen & Co. Appraisals appraisals for vacant land in Williams Lake reflect figures which are generally calculated at price per square foot, or price per ‘buildable’ square foot. According to the applicable laws and regulations in each Williams Lake region.

Land Development

If your residential land is already under development a Kohlen & Co. Appraisals appraiser can provide a value "as if complete" of your residential project up to four units.

Adjacent Properties

Data on adjacent properties and any planned development in the area may also affect and/or increase the valuation for vacant land, particularly if property nearby is being purchased for expansion or additional development.

Our appraisers are recognized by the region’s major lenders and financial institutions. Kohlen & Co. Appraisals maintains a full database of both urban and rural land properties in the Williams Lake area. We provide reports ranging from a full narrative to shorter form.
