What is Property Insurance Valuation?

Property insurance valuation is a process used in the insurance industry to determine the value of a property for the purpose of providing insurance coverage. The aim is to determine the amount of insurance coverage that is needed to protect the property against potential losses or damages. The valuation takes into account factors such as the current market value, replacement cost, and the cost to rebuild or repair the property. It helps the property owner determine the cost of replacement if an insurable event occurs, such as a break-in or a fire.

As a property owner, it’s important that you understand the full value of your property and assets. Asset Economics has years of experience with insurance valuation, and we’ll help you achieve peace of mind when it comes to your property.

Do you need a property insurance valuation?

A property owner may need a property insurance valuation for several reasons, here are some of the reasons:

To determine the appropriate insurance coverage: The valuation helps to determine the amount of insurance coverage needed to fully protect the property against potential losses or damages.

To ensure adequate protection: The valuation helps to ensure that the policyholder has adequate insurance coverage in case of loss or damage to the property. This helps to avoid underinsurance, which can result in significant financial losses if a loss occurs.

To keep up with changes in market value: The value of a property can change over time due to various factors such as market conditions, upgrades or renovations to the property, or changes in the local real estate market. The valuation helps to keep up with these changes and ensure that the policyholder has adequate insurance coverage.

To comply with insurance requirements: Many insurance policies require a property insurance valuation to be performed periodically in order to keep the policy in force. The valuation helps to ensure that the policyholder is in compliance with these requirements.

A property insurance valuation helps property owners determine the appropriate insurance coverage, ensure adequate protection, keep up with changes in market value, and comply with insurance requirements. That’s why the property owner needs the property insurance valuation

How can Asset Economics Help?

Sadly, it’s all too common that businesses need to file a quick insurance claim only to find that they have no solid basis for their insurance values. This can be devastating for businesses who have already suffered from the effects of a fire or flood, and desperately need the funds to get back on their feet. Without a solid basis for their insurance, it can take months or even years to investigate the property and issue settlements. The insurer may even refuse to pay a claim if the property is deemed under-insured, even if the owner had no idea. It’s therefore crucial that your business is insured correctly, to avoid any potential risks which could be devastating to your business. 

It’s not uncommon for self-assessments to result in under-insurance, which is why it’s always best to consult a fully qualified professional to handle your insurance valuation. The team at Asset Economics has years of experience in insurance valuation and will ensure that nothing is missed when it comes to the safety and security of your property.
