Property valuation.
How to proceed.
Good preparation makes valuing your property easier. Find out which details matter and how to use the online calculator.
Start your property valuation online
The embedded UnitedDataHub calculator is available for your property valuation. You can use it directly on the valuation page in the portal.
Select the property type in the calculator and enter the location and other requested features. Each step in the calculator shows you which information is needed.
Address and property type
The specific address is more informative than the district alone. Apartments, houses, rental apartment buildings and plots of land also differ in the features relevant to a valuation.
Floor areas, year of construction and condition
Prepare documented floor area figures. Record the year of construction and subsequent modernisation separately, and describe the condition as specifically as possible.
What matters for apartments, houses, rental apartment buildings and land
Apartment valuation
Layout, living area, floor, lift, orientation and outdoor areas describe the apartment. The condition of the whole building and communal areas complement these details.
House valuation
For a house, the building and the land belong together. In addition to living area and plot area, the structure, building services, modernisation and usability of rooms are important features.
Rental apartment building valuation
For a rental apartment building, preparation includes the units, tenancies, income, vacancies and running costs. Also document the condition and necessary renovations. The income approach takes income and operating expenses into account; the principles are explained in Section 5 of the Austrian Property Valuation Act.
Land valuation
For a plot of land, location, size, shape, access and possible uses matter. Unclear features should be clarified using suitable documents and as part of an individual assessment.
Understanding valuation methods
The appropriate method depends on the property, purpose of the valuation and available evidence. Our main articles explain professional methods with examples and checklists. They do not describe a disclosed calculation method for the embedded online calculator.
Sales comparison, income and cost approaches
Considering the location within Vienna
Vienna’s districts differ in their buildings and residential surroundings. Even within one district, a quiet courtyard position and a busy road can offer different conditions.
Our district overview for property valuation in Vienna provides local guidance for all 23 districts. This information complements the description of your specific property.
Online valuation and personal assessment
An online property valuation provides initial guidance. It cannot fully replace an inspection, an assessment of rights and uses or an individual appraisal.
Therefore record any special features and unanswered questions. With a complete document overview for your property you will be prepared for the next steps.
