Replacement Cost Estimates
Dade Appraisals offers professional Ins Replacement Cost Appraisals/Valuations, providing accurate insurance replacement cost estimates in the event of a catastrophe. Our appraisals are essential for property owners, insurance agents, and corporations to ensure proper insurance coverage.
Insurance appraisals, insurable value, and replacement cost estimates all refer to the same process used in the insurance industry to determine the cost of replacing a building. Therefore, it is important to notate that you may hear these different terms and know that they refer to how much it will cost financially to replace a building.
Our expert TCE&I appraisers conduct thorough evaluations, recording detailed information about the property's features and condition during a field inspection. This data is then entered into industry-leading software, such as CoreLogic (Commercial) or 360Value (Residential), which calculates the current insurance replacement cost based on market labor and material costs. Insurance professionals utilize our appraisals to determine replacement cost insurance premiums accurately.
*It is important to highlight that Market Value and Replacement Cost are not the same. Replacement cost refers to the expense of rebuilding a property or structure from scratch, while market value may differ from this figure. For more information on Replacement Cost Appraisals/Valuations, we recommend consulting your insurance agent.
Our Replacement Cost Appraisals/Valuations cover various types of commercial and residential properties, including warehouses, office buildings, mobile home/RV parks, mid-rise/high-rise buildings, malls, strip malls, retail centers, multi-family residential properties, hotels, land, condo buildings, and special purpose structures.
During our comprehensive appraisals, we assess crucial property features such as: all and roof construction, windows and doors, pool and cabana, flooring, bathrooms, kitchens, and bedrooms. By conducting regular Replacement Cost Appraisals/Valuations every 18-24 months, we ensure accurate and up-to-date insurance coverage.
