The process of real estate appraisal in Syria 2025 requires considering multiple factors that go beyond just location and area. The expert must take into account:
- Geographic Location: Proximity of the property to basic services (schools, hospitals, markets), the nature of the area (residential, commercial, industrial), and its level of safety.
- Property Condition: The property's expected lifespan, state of maintenance, any structural damage, and the quality of building materials used.
- Area: The total area of the property, the building area, and the land area. The value of the area differs according to the property's location and nature.
- Infrastructure: Availability of electricity, water, sanitation, and internet. The presence of developed infrastructure is an influential factor in determining the fair value of the property.
- Legal Status: It is necessary to verify the integrity of the property's supporting documents and the absence of any legal problems that may affect its value.
- Economic Factors: Exchange rates, inflation rates, and the general economic situation in Syria all directly affect real estate prices.
Real Estate Evaluation Methods: Practical Approaches
There are several methods for evaluating real estate, each with its advantages and disadvantages. Experts at Afaq Al-Aqar Academy recommend using an integrated approach that combines the following methods:
Comparison Approach
This method is based on comparing the property to be evaluated with similar properties that have been sold recently in the same area. Similarity in all the factors mentioned above must be considered. [Image: Diagram illustrating the comparison method]
Cost Approach
This method relies on estimating the cost of rebuilding the property from scratch, taking into account the cost of land, materials, and labor. This method is often used in evaluating new properties.
Income Approach
This method is used to evaluate properties that generate income, such as commercial or rental properties. The value is calculated based on the expected income from the property over a period of time. [Video: Simplified explanation of the income approach in real estate evaluation]
Dealing with the Challenges of the Syrian Market
The real estate market in Syria faces unique challenges, including: economic fluctuations, political instability, and a lack of accurate data on real estate prices. Appraisers must take these challenges into account when determining the fair value of the property. It is advisable to use reliable data sources and communicate with local experts.
"Appraisers in Syria must have a deep understanding of local conditions and use flexible valuation methods that take into account the rapid changes in the market." - Dr. Muhammad Ali, Economist at Afaq Al-Aqar Academy
Practical Examples and Case Studies
To illustrate the process, here is a practical example: Let's assume that we want to evaluate a residential apartment in Damascus, with an area of 150 square meters, 10 years old, in a prestigious area. We will use the comparison method, by comparing the apartment with similar apartments that have been sold recently in the same area. [Table: Comparison of similar apartments with their prices and specifications]
One of the challenges that Afaq Al-Aqar Academy faced in a specific case study was the evaluation of a property partially damaged as a result of the conflict. The cost method was used here, taking into account the cost of the necessary repairs. [Case Study: Downloadable PDF]

[Image: Image of a modern property in Syria]Real Estate Evaluation Criteria in Syria 2025
Real estate evaluation methods in Syria 2025 depend on a set of interconnected factors that must be taken into account carefully. It's impossible to rely on only one criterion; rather, a comprehensive analysis is required to determine the fair value of a property.
Geographic Location
Geographic location is considered one of the most important factors affecting real estate appraisal. Properties located in vital areas with developed infrastructure and close to basic services (hospitals, schools, markets) have a higher value than those located in remote areas. [Image: Map showing different areas in Syria with varying real estate prices]
Property Condition and Area
The condition of the property must be assessed accurately, taking into account the age of the property, the level of maintenance, the presence of any structural damage, and the level of finishes. The area of the property is also a major factor affecting its value, whether it's land area or built-up area.
Services and Facilities
The availability of services and facilities near the property significantly affects its value. Properties close to schools, hospitals, shopping centers, and public parks have a higher value. [Image: Image of a group of services and facilities]
Economic and Political Conditions
Economic and political conditions in Syria play a crucial role in real estate evaluation. Changes in the exchange rate, inflation rates, and the security situation all directly affect the value of real estate. [Image: Graph showing changes in real estate prices in Syria over the years]
Real Estate Valuation Methods: Practical Methodologies
Real estate evaluation experts rely on several methods to determine the fair value of real estate. Here, we will review the most important of these methods with practical examples:
- The Comparison Approach: This method is based on comparing the property being evaluated with similar properties that have been sold recently in the same area. Differences in area, condition, and location must be taken into account. [Example: Table showing a comparison of three similar properties]
- The Cost of Construction Approach: This method relies on calculating the cost of constructing a new property similar to the property being evaluated. Then, the value of depreciation is deducted based on the age and condition of the property. [Example: Detailed calculation of the cost of building a typical property]
- The Discounted Cash Flow Approach: This method is used to evaluate properties that generate income, such as commercial premises or rented residential buildings. The present value of the expected income from the property over a specific period is calculated. [Example: Case study of a commercial property]

Practical Examples and Case Studies
In a study conducted by Afaq Al-Aqar Academy on real estate valuation in Damascus, it was found that the main factors that affected the value were location, area, and property condition. The comparison method was used in this study, taking into account the prevailing economic and political factors. [Table: Shows the results of the Afaq Al-Aqar Academy study]
Another example: A residential property in Aleppo with an area of 150 square meters, 10 years old, and close to public facilities, was valued using the comparison method at $100,000 US dollars. But a similar property in a remote area was valued at only $70,000 US dollars. This illustrates the importance of location in determining the fair value of the property.

Appraisers and experts must rely on professional standards and scientific methods to determine the fair value of properties accurately.
