Valuation of Contaminated Land: Current Theory and Practice

Abstract

Suggests which valuation approaches should be adopted for appraising properties that are already treated or intended for development. Considers questions of ill‐informed market evidence, continuing liabilities, comparison of long‐term and short‐term advantages, grants and planning gain. Concludes that many in the property business will have to become more conversant with the mysteries of contamination.
