Insurance Appraisals and Replacement Cost Appraisals/Valuations (also known as cost replacement appraisals) provide the insurance replacement cost, in dollars, which gives owners, insurance agents, and corporations the ability to accurately insure a property in the event of catastrophe. The information obtained from an Insurance Appraisal or Replacement Cost Appraisal/ Valuation is itemized and recorded in the CoreLogic (Commercial) or 360Value (Residential) calculation system software. The system then computes an estimate of the current insurance replacement cost of the structure based on the property features recorded during the inspection and the current market costs of labor, materials, and other related fees (i.e. The Cost Approach). Insurance professionals use Insurance Appraisals or Replacement Cost Appraisals/ Valuations to determine replacement cost insurance premiums.
**It is important to note that Market Value does not equal Replacement Cost. Replacement cost is the cost to rebuild the property or structure brand new. Therefore, the market value of a property may be more or less than the replacement cost value. Please consult your insurance agent for more information on Insurance Appraisals and Replacement Cost Appraisals/ Valuations.
