When so much of what you do relies on quality appraisals, you need experience, transparency, and expertise. That's what it means to work with WestRock. #### Our Real Estate Appraisal Reports WestRock’s real estate appraisal reports are based on several factors. Any institutional property appraisal will be a result of these three approaches to provide the foundation for this quantitative data analysis:  1. Market Approach: A method that values an asset based on comparable property sales. Also known as the sales comparison approach, it tracks recently completed sales of similar properties to determine a property’s current market appeal.  2. Cost Approach: A method that values a property based on the replacement cost of constructing a similar property, minus depreciation, plus the site’s value.  3. Discounted Cash Flow: A method that estimates the value of an investment based on potential cash flows. Initial and annual costs, estimated income, and any holding periods are all variables used in this method.  Reliable market analysis is crucial for a trustworthy appraisal. Each of our real estate appraisal reports is meticulously prepared with your institutional real estate property in mind. WestRock delivers on accuracy and credibility using factors like:  - **Improvements and Suggestions: **Comprehensive descriptions, along with sketches and photographs, to detail a property’s optimized improvements.  - **Comparison Data: **Detailed photos, descriptions, and analytics of comparative properties are provided for comparison. A sales comparison grid depicts all data and any necessary adjustments.  - **Income Analysis: **Evaluation of historical data to determine a property’s projected income and its requisite expenses.   - **Operating Expenses: **We provide an operating expense history and anticipate your expenses based on our extensive collection of comparable expense data.  - **Capitalization Rate Development: **Resident and** **Commercial loan rate surveys provide a basis for capitalization rate development.
