Understanding property valuation is crucial for making informed decisions, particularly when it comes to securing loans or understanding the true value of your property. Let\u2019s take a closer look at what property valuation is and why it\u2019s so important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is Property Valuation?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing a property valuation means to evaluate the current market value of real estate or land. In other words, it is the estimated price of your property based on location, size, usage, and the trend in the market. To put it differently, it is as if you got a price list for the land you are selling or the house that you still live in, but professionally done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For banks like Global IME Bank, property valuation is the key to approving the loan facility against the property as it defines the maximum amount of loan that can be given. If you are someone planning to apply for a student loan or any kind of secured loan, property valuation is one of the first and most crucial steps. It\u2019s not just about what you think your house or land is worth-it\u2019s about what the bank believes it\u2019s worth, backed by expert evaluation. This is also a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalimebank.com\/np\/products\/loans\/home-loan\/\">crucial step during home loan<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Requirements for property valuation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Minimum requirements of property that can be evaluated by bank needs to meet the following criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Identification document of owners-citizenship<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Land title deed (such as <em>Rajinama, Bakaspatra, Chodpatra, Ansabanda<\/em> etc.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Lalpurja&nbsp;<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Original Blue print of land and\/or trace map (to be received by Bank official)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Original Four boundary certificate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Municipal approval of building drawing (<em>naksa pass<\/em>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Building completion certificate (in case of completed building) <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Municipal tax (<em>tiro rashid<\/em>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other documents as appropriate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Submitting Loan Application<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For obtaining the loan you need to formally submit your loan application. Here\u2019s a checklist of what you\u2019ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Completed loan application form<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Copy of valuation report<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Academic documents (for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalimebank.com\/products\/loans\/education-loan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">student loan<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Offer letter from the foreign university\/college<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Applicant\u2019s and guarantor\u2019s citizenship<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Proof of income (if any)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relationship certificate (if using parent&#8217;s property)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After submission, the bank will register your application and forward it to the credit department for assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Steps of Property Valuation at Global IME Bank<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you submit your request for a property valuation for loan, loan application is received and preliminary evaluation of eligibility is done and once confirmed process for valuation is initiated. A valuator appointed by Global IME Bank visits the property. During this visit, they do the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Measure the land size using GPS or measuring tools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the location and road access<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take photos of the property from different angles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verify if the details match with the documents you submitted. Our valuator needs the site map(Naksa) issued by their respective Malpot office.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Note down surroundings, development status, and utilities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Field visit is usually within 3 days after all documents are submitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the visit our valuator makes the valuation according to following steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Valuation is calculated by considering 30% of the government&#8217;s set value and 70% of the market value. This method helps balance official assessments with real market conditions. This value may change as per the regulatory instruction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After considering all this then the final valuation report is made and provided to the bank.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note: If any, all the charges like transportation charge, field visit charges, charge of documents required from malpot and local body need to be paid by the customer themselves<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Banks Do Property Valuation?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Banks perform property valuation for several important reasons, especially when it comes to lending and credit risk management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ensuring Loan Security<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on nature of loan, every Bank need a collateral security as back up; Land and Building are one of the most common Fixed Assets Collateral\/Property. That\u2019s where property valuation plays a critical role\u2014it helps banks decide how much they can safely lend. The loan amount depends on the market value of the property that you mortgage. Usually, the bank offers a percentage of the total valuation\u2014this is called the <strong>loan-to-value (LTV)<\/strong> ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say your land is worth NPR 1 crore based on the valuation. The bank may provide up to 60\u201380% of this value, depending on the loan type. So without proper valuation, this calculation wouldn&#8217;t be possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, for students planning to study abroad, in addition to the family income sources, your family assets also reflect your financial strength. The valuation report from a credible bank like Global IME Bank serves as strong documentation to show embassies or universities that you&#8217;re financially capable. That\u2019s why it\u2019s a must-have for education loan seekers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Preventing Overvaluation Risks<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If a borrower exaggerates the worth of a property, banks could end up lending more than they should. This creates a huge risk if the borrower defaults. To prevent this, banks always rely on third-party valuators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overvaluation not only puts the bank at risk but also harms the borrower. You could end up with a loan that\u2019s hard to repay. That\u2019s why having a neutral, professional valuation helps both sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Time Required for Property Valuation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Time is crucial, especially if you&#8217;re planning to go abroad and need your loan fast.
