Cadre Data-driven Valuation Assessment

An independent value for every property in a portfolio — verified on the ground.

Comprehensive
Every property valued, not a sample
Independent
Rates drawn from comparables, never from the property itself
Verified
Land use and building extents confirmed in the field
The case

Portfolio value decisions rest on evidence nobody verified.

Unverified land use compares a property against the wrong peers. An unrecorded building is invisible to the value. Sampling 20 of 400 properties leaves the risk in the other 380. And a wrong number is expensive in both directions: overstated values mean overpaying, over-gearing and an inflated rates burden; understated values mean disposing below worth, under-insuring and forgoing borrowing capacity.

The method

Verify → Group → Price → Benchmark

01

Verify

Land use, extent and quality verified per parcel.

02

Group

Each property grouped with its true comparables.

03

Price

Rates per square metre derived from the group — the property's own recorded value plays no part.

04

Benchmark

The independent value is benchmarked against the value on record, with divergences ranked by value at stake.

What clients receive

Datasets that outlive the assessment.

  • The parcel-level valuation database
  • The divergence register, ranked by value at stake
  • The verified land use dataset
  • The building footprint and grading layer
  • Report and dashboards
  • A handover briefing with asset, finance and the valuer
Who it serves

Municipalities and property owners alike.

Municipalities — valuation roll support, revenue completeness, defensible rates.

Property owners and practitioners — portfolio-wide due diligence, rates objections, asset-register integrity.
