This monograph critically reviews and updates real estate valuation theory, which is based on neoclassical economics, in light of developments in heterodox economic theory. Building on a comprehensive historical account of the evolution of value theory, the book uses new institutional economics theory and critical realism as lenses through which problems in standard valuation theory and practice are expatiated, and as the foundation for an alternative theory. The new theory is employed to explain major problems in real estate valuation that are beyond the capability of the standard theory, such as price bubbles in real estate markets, anchoring bias, client influence and valuation under uncertain market conditions.

This is a practical and accessible guide for students, filled with international case studies, which illustrate the framework of the book (valuation under uncertainty), as well as, a host of discussion questions to aid learning. Provides a unique and more comprehensive approach than competing texts, explaining variations in valuation outcomes by drawing on the psychological foundations of valuation theory. For educators it will help to widen the lens on what truly should be considered when valuing property.

The 12th edition of this textbook has been revised and reorganized significantly for greater clarity, coherence and consistency. Coverage includes emerging issues such as the impact of automated valuation models on the appraisal industry; the new emphasis on extraordinary assumptions and hypothetical conditions in recent revisions of standards of professional practice; and important data sources. For both novice appraisers and established practitioners. c. Book News Inc.
