3AA - 13380 2nd Draft Report Nov 2022
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Instructions
To prepare, for the benefit of the Bank and the Customer, a valuation report on Stand No. 13380,
Chalala-Hillview Area, Lusaka for purposes of collateral/loan security.
Interpretation of Instructions
As the valuation is required to support an application for a credit facility, instructions are that we
inspect the property, buildings and ancillary improvements; assess and provide advice and
comments, on amongst other matters:
the current open market value;
forced sale value;
estimated monthly market rental value;
estimated replacement cost of buildings and improvements for insurance purposes;
title and ownership and annual ground rent (lease charges);
suitability of the property and improvements as security for lending purposes, and whether
there would be difficulties if realization by the Bank became necessary; and
likely changes in the market value of the property.
Items Excluded
Moveable assets, including household furniture and equipment.
Site/Plot Area
Rectangular shaped land parcel, extending to 730 square metres (0.0730 hectare or
approximately 0.1803 of an acre), delineated and described on Diagram No. 1252 of 1997.
No mortgages are registered, and save for the State lease referred to above, and the reversion
vested in The President who holds the land in the country in perpetuity for and on behalf of the
people of Zambia, we are not aware of other interests or onerous restrictions or encumbrances;
statutory or otherwise, likely to have an adverse effect upon the market or other values of the
property.
Services
Mains water and electicity are connected.
Disposal of waste from sanitary fittings is to a septic tank and soak-way.
Access is from an un-named gravel road, to which the property has a frontage.
Condition
Based on the extent of our limited inspection undertaken as described above, and which we
considered adequate for purposes of assessing market and other values, we can state that although
of basic design and with limited fittings, the dwelling house has been constructed to a fairly good
standard. The accommodation is generally well maintained, and is in a fairly good condition,
with no material structural defects or signs of mechanical failure apparent, except for minor
defects and various items of routine repair and maintenance.
Bases of Valuation
As the valuation is required to support an application for a credit facility, bases adopted to arrive
at opinion of values are:-
(i) to assess market or capital value
“Open Market Value”, being the estimated amount for which an asset or liability
should exchange on the date of valuation, between a willing seller and willing buyer, in
an arms-length transaction; after proper marketing and where the parties to the
transaction had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.
(ii) to assess rental value
“Open Market Rental Value” assuming that the property is vacant and available to let,
and that the letting is at arms-length, between a willing landlord and willing tenant;
that no premium is paid and there is no additional bid by a prospective tenant with a
special interest; and that both landlord and tenant had acted knowledgeably, prudently
and without compulsion, taking account of the nature of the property and purposes for
which the tenancy is taken.
(i) a fairly large property (0.0000 of an acre), situated in quite a good position in an area
which is easily accessible and now has a good net-work of tarred roads.
situated in a well established area, with various social amenities such as shopping
centres, public and private schools, clinics, churches and public bus routes being in
close proximity.
Opinion of Values
Subject to assumptions made, opinion of values for the property are:
(i) open market and forced sale values:
Category of Assets Open Market Forced Sale
(i) Land K000,000 K000,000
(ii) Buildings and Improvements K000,000 K000,000
Total Value K000,000 K000,000
(ii) the market rental value would be in the range of K3,500 (Three Thousand and Five
Hundred Kwacha) per calendar month, assessed on the basis of a yearly tenancy; and on
terms normally applicable in lettings of this class of property, and assuming that the
accommodation is vacant and available to let.
Date of Valuation
As the date of valuation has not been specified, opinion of values is assessed as at 8 thNovember
2022, which is the date of inspection of the property.
Confidentiality
The Report and opinion of values are provided for the sole use of Zambia National
Commercial Bankand for the specific purpose to which it refers. The information is
confidential to the Bank and Mr. Milner Lubasi and their professional advisors in this matter.
No responsibility whatsoever is accepted to other parties, for any loss or financial obligation,
direct or consequential, which might arise from reliance on the document or any part of its
contents.
Disclosure
If, for whatever reason our opinion of values is disclosed to persons other than the Bank and the
property owner, then the bases of valuation adopted, assumptions made as well as exclusion
clauses stated in the Report should also be disclosed in full..

6.9 Buildings
In addition to the boundary wall, paved parking areas as well as service installations referred
to above, the property is developed with the following:
(1) Dwelling House
(2) Dog Kennel No. 1
(3) Dog Kennel No. 2 (for puppies)
For purposes of identification, a single – line building and accommodation layout plan (not
drawn to scale) and a few pictures, are provided as part of the Report.
The Report is not the result of a structural, soil or geophysical survey; since these surveys do
not form part of a standard valuation exercise, unless specific instructions are issued, and
these are therefore considered to fall outside the scope of usual instructions, nor have service
and drains been tested. We cannot therefore give any guarantees in these respects.
However, based on the extent of our inspection undertaken as described above and which we
considered adequate for purposes of assessing market and other values, we can state that the
dwelling house and ancillary improvements are in a fairly good condition and state of repair,
with no structural defects or signs of mechanical failure apparent, except for minor defects
and items of routine maintenance.
Due to time and cost implications, it is not standard practice to undertake a cadastral or
satellite survey as a verification exercise, unless circumstances dictate and specific
instructions are issued. In addition, we believe that few if any Customers expect this aspect
to form part of a valuation exercise, as would any property owner, unless circumstances
dictated otherwise.
With regard to private development, we can mention that there is current private sector
investment, is mainly limited to the development of residential units within the area and at
an individual level, is likely to improve the quality of property and create a high demand;
and we are of the opinion that as a resultmarket and rental values of properties in this part of
the Chalala, including the subject, will shift upwards in real terms at least in the long term.
Unless evidence suggests potential for contamination, or we are specifically instructed to do so, we
do not (due to cost and time constraints), commission investigations into environmental matters or
issues of contamination or pollution, and any observations we may make are expressed strictly on
the understanding that we have not undertaken any formal environmental study.
Due to cost and time constraints, we do not, unless specifically instructed, commission as
part of our inspection of a property, investigation into environmental matters or issues of
contamination or pollution, and any observations made are expressed strictly on the
understanding that we have not undertaken any formal environmental study. In the absence
of specific investigations and where there is no apparent reason to suspect potential for
contamination, our valuation is made on the basis that the property is not affected.
We are not aware of the content of any environmental audit or other environmental
investigation or similar study, which has been carried out on the property which may draw
attention to contamination or the possibility of any contamination. Further, we have no
reason to suspect that the property has at any time in the past been exposed to contamination.
In undertaking our work, we have based on the site visit, assumed but can give no
assurances that no contamination or contaminative uses have ever been carried out on the
subject property or on neighbouring sites and have therefore that the subject and adjoining
sites are not contaminated.
With respect to adjoining properties, we are unable to express an opinion, in the absence of
physical inspections, or access to studies undertaken or similar environmental investigations,
as to whether adjoining sites might or might not be subject to contamination. Further we
wish to mention that even if specific instructions were issued for such a study and adequate
time allowed, it would prove difficult, due to costs constraints, and access would most likely
be denied by respective land owners.
Further, we are of the view that there is no apparent evidence of environmental issues that
could potentially have clean up or liability implications for current or future owners. We
can add that the business undertaken by current occupants could not be permitted,
deliberately or otherwise, to be subjected to contamination, and therefore we believe that for
purposes of granting a mortgage, an environmental risk assessment would not be necessary.
There are common attributes to the assessment of market and forced sale values; both
assume a transaction between seller and buyer and the appraisal entails establishing a value,
but based on different sale conditions. Market value assumes a normal transaction, between
a willing seller and willing buyer, with each party acting prudently and not under duress.
Under a forced sale scenario, the intention is to achieve a disposal quickly, and therefore
time allowed for marketing is normally unduly short.
Assessment of rental value assumes a letting of a property, from owner to tenant, with the
terms of occupation stated, which specifies rights and obligations of the tenant’s otherwise
limited occupation of the property.
There are four possible approaches to estimating the value (market or forced sale) of a
property; namely: -
(1) Land Value by Market (Sales) Comparison;
(2) Property Value by Market Comparison;
(3) Property Value by the Cost Approach; and
(4) Property Value by Income Approach.
(1) Assessment of a Property by the Land Value by Market (Sales) Comparison is normally
adopted in situations where the objective is to establish the value of the site; for
example a vacant un-developed plot; or if the economic value of the buildings is lower
than redevelopment value.
(2) Property Value by Market Comparison would be appropriate if the assessment is
intended to produce a value for both the site and improvements; normally for properties
which have evidence of sales and rental is adequate.
(3) Assessment of the Property Value by the Cost Approach is normally applied if there is
no comparable evidence, for example in the case of specialized properties. This method
is usually applied as a last resort.
(4) Assessment by Income Approach is normally used for properties held as long term
investment and often producing (or would produce) regular income by way of rent.
Examples include office developments held by pension funds or shopping centres. The
assessment is based on income inflow (rental stream) over the period of the investment.
Considering the extent of the site, designand condition of buildings; we are of the view that
Approach Nos. 1, 3 and 4 are not in the present instance appropriate methods to be adopted
in the appraisal of the property.The nature of the property, dictates that the assessment be
based ona “Comparative Method”, based on prices and rentalspaid for similar properties
within the area or similar locations.
Examples of Specialized properties include oil refineries and chemical works where
buildings are no more than housing for highly specialized plant; hospitals, universities,
museums, libraries and other similar establishments.
Non-Specialized properties are those for which there is a general demand, and which are
commonly bought or sold on the open market for their existing or similar uses, either with
vacant possession for single occupation, or (whether tenanted or vacant) as investments or
for redevelopment.
Examples of Non-Specialized properties include dwelling houses and residential flats,
commercial units such as shops, warehouses, offices and light industrial properties; as well
as agricultural smallholdings.
An opinion of the bestrentat which a new letting of the accommodation would have been
completed unconditionally at the date of valuation, assuming:-
(a) a willing landlord;
(b) that, prior to the date of valuation, there has been a reasonable period (having regard to
the nature of the property and the state of the market) for the proper marketing of the
interest, for the agreement of the rent and other letting terms and for the completion of
the letting;
(c) that the state of the market, level of values and other circumstances were, on any
earlier assumed date of entering into an agreement for a lease, the same as on the date
of valuation;
(d) that no account is taken of any additional bid by a prospective tenant with a special
interest;
(e) a stated length of term and stated principal conditions, applying or assumed to apply to
the letting and that the other terms are not exceptionally onerous or beneficial for a
letting of the type and class of the subject property;
(f) that no premium passed and that any rent free period is in respect only of the time
which would have been needed by the incoming tenant to make the subject property fit
for occupation; and
(g) that both parties to the transaction had acted knowledgeably, prudently and without
compulsion.
With regard to the local environment, demand for land is high despite current economic
circumstances, particularly in urban areas, and has been for many years. For property in
areas well sought after by high and mid-income groups, including sites in good areas which
have development potential, there may be little difference between market and forced sale
value. Where there is a marked difference, experience has shown that in most cases,
potential buyers often offer lower than market prices because they are aware that the owner
of the property which is being sold is acting under duress (as is often the case with property
repossessed and advertised by lending institutions), bidders therefore tend to adopt a
vulturous approach, and will offer and negotiate for the lowest price possible.
Another aspect of disposal under forced sale circumstances is litigation, and the lengthy
procedures a mortgagee or receiver in possession may have to follow in selling the property.
These procedures tend to be quite costly, and in the end, the disposal takes far much longer
to conclude than a normal sale.
We therefore suggest that the Bank takes account of this position with regard to the opinion
of forced sale value stated.
In accordance with standard practice, the bases of assessment adopted to arrive at opinion of
the values are:
(a) to assess market value: - open market value (market/sales comparison);
(b) to assess replacement cost:- estimated reinstatement cost; and
(c) to assess forced/distress sale value:- estimated restricted realization price.
These are defined as follows:
In assessing rental value, we have assumed, considering the nature and extent of the
property, the level of development, quality of accommodation as well as demand for
residential accommodation, a lease at arms-length, on a year to year basis, with an option to
renew and terms normally applicable in lettings of this class of residential property. In
addition to standard terms, such as grant of quiet enjoyment, the Landlords would be
responsible for structural repairs and payment for insurance of the property as well as
property taxes, including local authority rates. The tenant, in addition to compliance with
normal terms, such as payment of rent as agreed under the lease, would be responsible for
routine repairs and maintenance, and settlement of charges for services supplied to the
premises, including electricity.
With regard to the local environment, demand for land is high despite current economic
circumstances, particularly in urban areas, and has been for many years. For property in
areas well sought after by high and mid-income groups, including sites in good areas which
have development potential, there may be little difference between market and forced sale
value. Where there is a marked difference, experience has shown that in most cases,
potential buyers often offer lower than market prices because they are aware that the owner
of the property which is being sold is acting under duress (as is often the case with property
repossessed and advertised by lending institutions), bidders therefore tend to adopt a
vulturous approach, and will offer and negotiate for the lowest price possible.
Another aspect of disposal under forced sale circumstances is litigation, and the lengthy
procedures a mortgagee or receiver in possession may have to follow in selling the property.
These procedures tend to be quite costly, and in the end, the disposal takes far much longer
to conclude than a normal sale.
We therefore suggest that the Bank takes account of this position with regard to the opinion
of forced sale value stated.

9.2 Age and Condition of Structural, Electrical and Mechanical components, Types of
Construction and Buildings Economic Life.
However, based on inquiries made and the inspections conducted as earlier described, we
understand that the property was initially developed over several years ago. Buildings are
constructed to a fairly good standard of workmanship using permanent materials, and
existing service installations have been installed to expected standards. Fittings and finishes
are to a fairly good standard and in addition, we have not observed material or structural
defects or signs of mechanical failure, although there are minor defects and items of routine
maintenance.
stability and safety of a building; examples include structural cracks, sinking foundations,
defective electrical installations and termite infestation.
As mentioned above,the dwelling house was originally constructed to a good standard of
workmanship, structures, fittings and finishes have not been maintained; and are now in a
poor state with various defects apparent. We believe that buildings are in a poor state, due to
lack of maintenance; structures require complete refurbishment.
Our opinion of market value is prepared on the assumptions and limitations summarized
below. In the absence of information that adversely affect the property; these assumptions
and limitations are usual; and do not negatively impact on the valuation.
(i) information provided to us is complete and correct in all respects; but we assume that
where appropriate, advice will be sought to confirm the accuracy of these details.
(ii) a soil survey of the site or structural survey of buildings and ancillary improvements is
beyond the scope of our instructions; we cannot therefore give any guarantees in these
respects.
(iii) boundaries are established and clearly defined, and there are no encroachments or
boundary disputes with adjoining sites.
(iv) inspection of parts of the property and improvements that have not been inspected
would neither reveal material defects nor cause the Valuation Surveyor to alter the
valuation materially.
(v) the property is developed and improvements constructed in accordance with valid
statutoryconsents and building regulation approvals, to the full satisfaction of the
Authorities.
(vi) a good and marketable title can be shown; and there are no onerous or unusual
outgoings, restrictions or encumbrances, likely to have an adverse effect upon the
market value of the premises.
(vii) all documentation relating to the property is satisfactorily drawn and there is no
material litigation pending.
(viii) no deleterious or hazardous materials were used in the construction of buildings or
have since been incorporated.
(ix) no contamination or potentially contaminative use has ever been carried out on site or
on adjoining properties.
(x) an appropriate and adequate insurance policy has been obtained, and that there are no
acts or omissions on the part of the insured of the premises which would render the
policy void or voidable.
We wish to mention that we are not aware of any variance between information we have
obtained from searches and inquiries made, and facts relating to the property, and further; we
have no reason to believe that information provided by various sources, including the Owner
of property and the Ministry of Lands is inaccurate.However, should we subsequently
become aware that any of these or other assumptions are incorrect, we may choose to revise
our opinions, and if need be, advise the Addresseesaccordingly.
