To achieve sustainable economic development, the valuation of real property is increasingly
important in investment appraisal. The precision of valuation results and investment appraisal is
subject to a variety of potential influences. In most situations, several stakeholders argue on the
value of properties valued by banks. Hence, this study assessed factors that affect mortgage
valuation; the satisfaction of customers with mortgage lending value, and the application of real
property as loan collateral in Bahir Dar city. Samples of banks were selected to investigate the
practice of property valuation in the study area. Both purposive and systematic random sampling
techniques were employed to undertake this study. The survey data was analyzed using
descriptive statistics. The finding of the study revealed that lack of a clear and consistent
valuation manual, the use of obsolete market data, inadequate level of professional competence
and experience, the valuation method used, educational background of the valuers, lacks of
training, and error happened during the process of valuing and inspecting properties are the
major problems that cause valuation variation and inaccuracy. Among the bank customers who
obtained loans from the sample banks by using their property as loan collateral, the majority of
the customers, or 62.71%, were dissatisfied with the valuation result provided by the banks for
their property. To resolve client claims, a uniform standard of valuation method and practice is
recommended |
