Farm & Agricultural Appraisals

The Appraisers Network provides independent appraisals of farms, farmland and rural acreage throughout Grey, Bruce, Simcoe and the surrounding counties. Every assignment is completed by a designated AACI, P.App appraiser and reported in accordance with the Canadian Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (CUSPAP).

Agricultural Properties We Appraise

Our agricultural work includes cash crop farms, livestock operations, equestrian facilities, vacant farmland, woodlots and bush lots, and rural land with future development potential. Where a property includes barns, drive sheds, grain storage or other agricultural improvements, these are analysed as part of the overall valuation of the real property.

Common Reasons for a Farm Appraisal

Farm owners, lenders and their advisors engage us for mortgage financing and refinancing, purchase and sale negotiations, estate and succession planning, and the dissolution of family or business partnerships. We also prepare date-of-death and capital gains appraisals for submission to the Canada Revenue Agency, and appraisals related to expropriation, easements and partial takings for pipelines, hydro corridors and road widenings.

Local Farmland Market Knowledge

Farmland values in Grey, Bruce and Simcoe vary considerably with soil capability, drainage, tillable acreage and proximity to growing communities. Our analysis is grounded in verified sales of comparable agricultural properties in the subject’s local market, supported by site inspection and a clear explanation of the adjustments applied.
