PREFACE

This manual is specifically designed for the use of final year students completing their Diploma in Estate Management,
Universiti Teknologi MARA Perak, Campus Seri Iskandar.

This core course introduces the application of principles into practice for the valuation of special properties. The students
have been exposed to the mainly theoretical components of the core course since their First Year and this course recaps
the diploma level requirements.

It is hoped that the publication of this manual will aid students in achieving the objectives of collating data and information
for the valuation of special properties; thus enabling them to have the skills to value special properties using different
valuation approaches. Adequate materials are also included to guide students in preparing valuation reports of special
properties for various purposes.

This manual is also hoped to improve the teaching and learning process of this critical course and better prepare students
for their next level of study which is the practical training module.

Teaching materials have been adapted from various sources mainly from books either locally or internationally. Materials
were also adapted from the relevant journals and seminar papers.

WEEK 2

I.0 INTRODUCTION

Malaysian Valuation Standards defines Specialised Properties as “those which due to their specialized nature are
rarely, if ever sold on the market for single occupation, for a continuation of their existing use, except as part of a
sale of the business in occupation. The specialized nature may arise from the construction, arrangement, size or
location of the property, or a combination of these factors, or may be due to the nature of the plant and
machinery, and items of equipment which the buildings are designed to house, or the function, or the purpose for
which the buildings are provided.

Special property refers to properties, which are not normally transacted in the market. These are properties
purposely built for that particular use. The properties are mostly heterogeneous than homogeneous. Most
common special properties are hotels, petrol station, cinema, purpose-built restaurant, golf courses and quarry.

It is not easy to find the comparisons for the special properties. Therefore, most common approach is the Profits
method and Cost Method.

2.0 PURPOSE OF VALUATION

Valuations for special properties are required for many different purposes. It is important to determine the
purpose of valuation before undertaking the valuation calculation.

The purpose of valuation and the basis of valuation must comply with the following unless specifically required;

Purpose of Valuation Basis of Valuation


Sale and purchase Market Value
Lending Purposes Market Value
Stamp Duty Market Value
Real Property Gains Tax Market Value
Land Acquisition In accordance with the appropriate Act-
Land Acquisition Act 1960 (as amended) or
Sarawak Land Code Or Land Acquisition
Ordinance (Sabah)
Rating In accordance with the appropriate Act – Local
Government Act 1976(as amended) or Local
Authorities Ordinance 1996 Sarawak or Local
Government Ordinance 1961(Sabah)
Fire Insurance Reinstatement Cost New or as identified by the
policy. (MVS Standard 16)
Financial Reporting Fair Value (Market Value) (MVS Standard 12)
Submission to Securities Commission As per “Guideline on Assets Valuation” issued by
- For acquisition of assets by public the Securities Commission. (MVS Standard 17)
Company
- Revaluation for financial reporting

Students are required to present the findings of Task 2.

WEEK 3

3.0 REVIEW OF THE VALUATION METHOD

3.1 APPRAISAL PROCESS


(Students are required to refer to the notes on Valuation Process in REM151)

 Physical and legal identification


 Identify property rights to be valued
 Specify the purpose of the valuation
 Specify effective date of valuation
 Data collection
i. Legal data the legal interest in the property
the area of the land
the rules and regulation that affect the operation of the property
ii. Physical data the location and surrounding
Location of property
Referencing the property
iii. Market data Sales comparison
Demand and supply
Last three years trading account
Construction cost
 Gather and analyse market data
 Apply techniques to estimate value

3.2 THE COMPARATIVE METHOD

The process:
1. Select several similar properties (comparables ) from among all the properties that have
recently been sold.
2. Since no two properties are identical - must adjust the selling price of each comparable to
account for differences between the subject property and the comparable,
 Positive features that comparables possess relative to the subject property require
negative adjustments;
 Negative features require positive adjustments.
3. Adjustments on differences in size, age, quality of construction, selling date, surrounding
neighborhood, etc.

4. Infers the current value of the subject from the adjusted sales prices of the comparables.

 Valuing properties using this method is a highly subjective process and should be
justified with evidence based on recent experience with highly comparable properties.
 The sales comparison approach is heavily dependent on the availability, accuracy,
completeness, and timeliness of sale transaction data.

11
Comparative :

 Widely used
 Depends on evidence
 Variation Size - Units of Comparison
 Other variation - Subjective opinion
 Changes in market - Subjective Opinion
 Requires skill and experience

Type of property

 Houses and Flats


 Agricultural properties
 Residential building land
 Shops
 Factories and warehouses

The Evidence The Market

Should be based on

Transactions of physically similar


Properties should be fairly stable

With similar legal interest


Underlying economic factors should be studied
In the same area

Obtained from

Recent records

Of many transactions

Comparative Valuation

12
3.3 THE COST METHOD

(CONTRACTOR’S METHOD, DEPRECIATED REPLACEMENT COST (DRC))

 Rationale of the Cost Approach:


Any informed buyer would not pay more for a property than it would cost to buy the land and build the
Structure
 For new property: The cost approach involves determining the construction cost of the building an
improvement and adding the market value of the land.
 In the case of an existing building, the valuer estimates the cost of replacing the building.

Value of the property =


Value of the site + Value of improvements

13
3.4 THE PROFIT METHOD

(Receipts and Expenditure Method, Accounts Method)

 An Accounts-Based Method
 Based on the assumption that the value of some properties will be related to the profits that can be made
from their use.
 Method rest on the theory that a hypothetical tenant would relate his rental bid to the profits he would be
likely to make on the premise
 Generally used where there is some degree of monopoly attached to the property (factual or legal).
 The method is to estimate the rental value of a property.
 Profit should be taken on annual basis, thus accounts should be on annual basis.
 Normally accounts for the past 3 years would be taken to give a better indication (accounts should be
audited and certified)
 Assumptions on the method :
- A reasonably skilled operator;
- A direct and indivisible link between the property and the business.

Gross Receipts (Income) XXX

Receipts should include all income


directly and indirectly derived from
occupation of the property.

Less Cost of Purchases XX


Net Receipts (Gross Profit) XXX
Less Working Expenses XX
Divisible Balance XXX

 The Divisible Balance is the sum available to be shared between the landlord and the tenant. It contains two
main elements:
I. The Tenant’s Share – To provide a return on any tenant’s capital employed and a reward to
the tenant for his venture reflecting the extent of the risk and the need for profit. This is deducted
from the Divisible Balance to leave:
II. The Landlord’s Share i.e. the rent payable (which becomes the rateable value).

Gross Receipts

• Receipts should include all income directly and indirectly derived from occupation of the property.

Working Expenses (amount spent on the BUSINESS)


• Expenditure to be deducted from gross profit may include:
• Salaries, wages, MPF
• Provision of services, e.g. gas, electricity and water
• Contracts, e.g. for supply of equipment
• Costs incurred in connection with:
– traveling - cleaning -repairs
– fees - printing and postage - advertising
– licenses - telephone
• Head Office expenses
 Outline of the method:-
14
Gross earnings a
Less purchases b
Gross profits a-b
Less working expenses/operating expenses d
Net profit/Divisible balance e

 Part of the net profit (e) should be allocated to:


- pay the tenant/entrepreneur for his work/risk in the business
3 normal ways of calculating entrepreneur/tenant share:
i) Taking percentage of the annual turnover
ii) Taking percentage of total capital invested
iii) Taking percentage of the divisible balance (40%-60%)
- allow for the interest on the capital he put in the business
- amount to pay for the use of the premise (rent)

 So the method continues with the following equation

Net profit/Divisible balance e


Less tenant/entrepreneur share
i) remuneration
(40%-60% of Divisible balance)
ii) interest on capital
(% of capital borrowed/invested)
f
Surplus available as rent /gross rent e-f
Less outgoings (amount spent on the OWNERSHIP/OCCUPATION
of the property) g
Net rent (e-f)-g
Net rent can be capitalized
to get the Capital Value x YP for uxt @ i%
Capital Value.

3.5 THE INVESTMENT METHOD

 An approach to determine the capital value of an interest whereby the value of a property is said to be
a function of the current (existing) income and a future stream of income
 Method commonly used to value income producing properties.
 Using the process of discounting i.e. finding out the present value of future income.
 Also known as the Income Approach or Years Purchase Method or Capitalisation Method.
 Capitalisation is a process of converting net income or rental into capital value.
 Rental Value is the net rent (Rent less outgoings)

Valuation

Net Income RM per annum net


X YP in-perpetuity @ i% 1/i
Capial Value RM

Petrol station is a facility which sells fuel and lubricants for motor vehicles.
It is also known as gas station, fueling station, filling station, service station, petrol station, garage, gas
bar , petrol pump or petrol bunk (India).

4.2 Two common types of petrol stations;

i) Petrol station with basic facilities (Traditional petrol station)

ii) Petrol station with other facilities such as service bays, workshop, car/minimarket sales room,
etc (Modern Petrol Station)

4.3 The normal operation of a petrol station:

i) Owner-operator (Dealer Owned Dealer Operated Station)

The operators own the land and buildings. The oil company will contract to supply the petrol.
All maintenance and outgoing are borne by the owner.

ii) Dealer (Leaseback-operator)

The oil company leased the land (paying the ground rent) from the owner and develops it into a
petrol station. The company will then lease the station to an operator (known as dealer) or
lease back to the owner on a monthly rentals.
(Normally based on a % of gross income from sales of petrol and services)

iii) Lessee-operator

The oil company owns the land and building, leased it to an operator for a specific period,
paying an agreed rent.

Based on the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government and the Local Authorities.
17
Petrol Stations can be divided into two characteristics:
i) Separate petrol stations
ii) Petrol stations at the strata building (still not being practiced in Malaysia yet).
It is placed at the basement in the strata building.

SEPARATE PETROL STATIONS

Three types of separate petrol station:


i) Cluster petrol station

 Normally can be found at the town centre


 Give convenient to the customer to make a choice

ii) Petrol station that locate side by side

 It is situated next to each other in parallel dimension.


 Normally located along highways where the demand for fuel is higher

18
iii) Separate location of petrol stations

 Located at lower density and no competitor


 Build only to serve necessary services to fulfill customer need and want

4.7 Methods of Valuation

 Profits Method
 Cost method

Example of calculation to determine the gross receipts of a petrol station:


Average sales over the past 3 years are as follows:

Type Daily sales Purchase Selling price


Primax 97 8000 litres RM2.34 RM2.49
Primax 95 4000 litres RM2.06 RM2.19
Diesel 1500 litres RM2.00 RM2.17

Other income from sales of accessories and minimarket RM1200 daily (the profit is 40%)
Income from sales of petrol:
Primax 97 8000 X (2.49 – 2.34) = 1200
Primax 92 4000 X (2.19 – 2.06) = 520
Diesel 1500 X (2.17 – 2.00) = 255
1975 X 365 days = 720,875
add
income from the sales of accessories
and minimarket RM1200 x 40% x 365 = 175,200
Gross profits = 896,075 p.a

ii) Estate (> 40 hectares) subject to Sec.214A of NLC

9.1 Characteristics of an Estate

 Large in size
 Managed by professional managers
 Systematic management
 Self-contained with facilities and residential units
 Small community in an estate

9.2 Factors Affecting Value:

 Physical factors
- Location and accessibility, contour, weather, soil type, road network within the estate,
fencing, amenities.

 Economic factors
- Size of estate, demand and supply of crops, price of
agricultural product, production costs, demography

 Legal factors
- NLC (sec 214A)
- Government incentives
- Price control and taxation policies

 Agricultural/Agronomic factors
- Type of species
- Plant diseases
- Planting system
- Pests
- Fertilizing system
- General agricultural husbandry

9.3 OIL PALM

 Palm oil is produced from kernel


 Species: DxP, DxD, DxT, (D= Dura, T=Tenera, P=Pisifera)
 DxP produces optimum oil
 Economic life of oil palm is 23-25 years.
 Oil palm starts producing at the age of 3 with production of 6.2 tons/hec from year 3 to 20 tons/hec
at the age of 7 and subsequently 25 tons/hec for 12 years.

54
9.5 Valuation Approach for Agricultural Properties

9.5.1 Comparison Method


9.5.2 Investment Method (Based on income)

9.5.1 COMPARISON METHOD

Example 1.

Valuation of an estate planted with oil palm of different ages.


Valuation:
Mature:

Oil Palm 5-7 yrs 200hec @RM20,000 per hec RM


Oil Palm 8-13 yrs 150hec @RM22,000 per hec RM
Oil Palm 20-23 yrs 300hec @RM17,000 per hec RM

Young :

Oil Palm 1 yr 150hec @RM15,000 per hec RM


Oil Palm 3-4 yrs 100hec @RM16,000 per hec RM

Others :
Building Site 10hec @RM25,000 per hec RM
Uncultivated area 5hec @RM1,200 per hec RM
Total RM

The rate used for each category of age should reflect:


i) Location iv) Land area
ii) Soil type v) Yield from the age group
iii) Tenure

9.5.2 INVESTMENT METHOD

 This method is better known as “productivity method” or “capitalization of profits method” or Years
Purchase method”
 It involves 2 stages of valuation
i) Present value of the right to receive net profit from the remaining economic life of the crops
ii) Present value of reversion to bare site value ( with uneconomic crops)
 This method has been accepted by court in the case United Temiang Rubber Estates vs CLR Muar.

 Steps involved when applying this method :

1. Determine the remaining economic life of crops(economic life less age of trees)
2. Determine average yield from past records
3. Determine average price per unit
4. Multiply yield by price and less whatever costs incurred to obtain the net income
5. Multiply net income with YP (dual rate with tax)
6. Value of vacant agricultural land derived from comparables and discount at present value
deferred period
7. Sum up both values to get the value of estate.

WEEK 11 VALUATION OF QUARRY

11.1 Introduction

• Quarrying is basically the extraction of rock material by various forms of drilling, blasting
materials handling and processing to produce end products for construction, building and
manufacturing industries.
• The product may vary from granite and marble blocks for the production of polished materials to
aggregates for the construction work and powdered materials for chemical industries including
production of ceramics.
• The word quarry is not clearly defined by any law in Malaysia except the newly introduced State Quarry
Rules. Technically, quarrying and mining are similar in many respects. The methods and equipment
employed in quarrying of rock or excavating sands and gravel are similar to those used in surface
mining operations.

11.2 Application Procedure for Quarry Operation

iii) Alienated under State Mineral Enactment – similar to mining lease
iv) Land licensed under Sec 15(1) and 16 National Forestry Act 1984
• However for land alienated under (i) and (iii) the lease is not inclusive of extraction of raw material.
Application is required under Sec 70 of the NLC.
