Cushman & Wakefield’s approach to valuations is therefore based on thorough research and an in-depth understanding of real estate. Supported by an exceptionally extensive transaction database, the Valuation & Advisory department stays on top of current trends at a national, regional and local level.
Professional and reliable
Valuations are always carried out in accordance with the following standards:
- Commercial Real Estate Regulations Dutch Register of Real Estate Valuers (NRVT), www.nrvt.nl;
- International Valuation Standards (IVS), published by the International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC), www.ivsc.org;
- European Valuation Standards (EVS), published by The European Group of Valuers Associations (TeGoVa), www.tegova.org;
- RICS Valuation Standards (The Red Book), www.rics.org;
- Cushman & Wakefield Global Code of Business Conduct, Cushman & Wakefield's internal code of conduct
Our work processes are also ISAE3402 Type II certified, making our procedures transparent and verifiable for our clients. This will enable you to make well-informed decisions and your reporting procedures will comply in all respects with current regulations.
Valuation reports are also assessed on a random basis for quality and completeness. An assessment is carried out by a valuer who has not been involved in the assignment concerned. Furthermore, the valuers declare that when performing a valuation, the fundamental principles of objectivity and independence have been upheld. The objectivity and independence of valuers are safeguarded through compliance with our ethics codes.

Our expert valuers have a wealth of experience in all sectors, so our capabilities extend across the entire breadth of the market. We also guarantee that our valuers adopt a proactive and advisory approach.
