The cost approach allows you to determine the value of your property by adding the land value and the depreciated value of any improvements. This approach is much effective on new infrastructures or properties instead of older properties.

Another method which is normally used for determining the value of your property is the comparable sales method. This method allows you to compare your property with another property in a similar location within a recent period of time. This method is much effective and normally used by many property valuers. Also this method is much reliable to bring sales in the property market.

The income approach is when the present worth of the property is estimated on the grounds of projected future net income, thereby focusing on the profitability of a property investment. However, it neglects its worth in comparison to the overall market.
